| The town of Daniel located in the Green River Valley was settled in 1899 by Thomas Pixley Daniel, although it was not incorporated until Feb. 1, 1900. Just west of Daniel at the confluence of the Green River and Horse Creek is one of the original sites of the fur traders and Indians rendezvous. Beginning in the 1930's the reenactments of the Green River Rendezvous were held at this site. Now the pageants are held annually in Pinedale the second week in July. The old Daniel School house which is registered as a national historic landmark is now the Daniel Community Center. This is an area rich with history and the community club has recently published a book "Daniel, Wyoming - The first Hundred Years" to commemorate their centennial. The Community Center also sponsors such events as the Aniel Daniel Chili Cook-Off in April as well as the Old Timer's Picnic in July. The Green River Library registered as an official library in the Library of Congress is located in the Green River Bar. If you would like to learn more about the Daniel Schoolhouse, visit the Sublette County Historic Buildings page. | ||||||||||||
