Abstract	This paper summarizes the various visually-oriented and informational projects that were developed to enhance the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the town of Cody (Wyoming). Some of the projects that were developed included: (1) a slide show presentation detailing Cody's growth from 1896 to the 1920s; (2) a pictorial history of the town; (3) a tapestry displaying several buildings important to local history; (4) a centennial calendar using old photographs of the town and of Colonel William F. Cody and his family; (5) weekly photographs and stories published in the local newspaper; (6) assorted pictorial exhibits; (7) display cases and panels filled with appropriate materials at the Park County courthouse; (8) providing photographs and information for school projects; (9) revising the Walking Tour for the town of Cody; (10) efforts in acquiring artifacts, materials, photographs and information for the Centennial display; (11) informational kiosks erected at sites around the town; (12) a video production of Cody's first 100 years; (13) a Web site; and (14) historical markers for the Northfork Highway (road to Yellowstone National Park).
