Summary

Constructed in 1911, the Dry Valley Church is located in rural Cherry County. Built by and for the ranching families surrounding the church site, it not only gave the people a place to worship, but also a place to gather and socialize. The church is significant for the important role it played in the settlement of the area and as the social hub of the surrounding ranching community.
