Palm Beach County Commissioner Hal Valeche, together with The Palm Beach County Parks and Recreation Department (PBC Parks) and the Florida State Society Daughters of the American Colonists, will be unveiling a Historic Marker at the DuBois Pioneer Home on Thursday, November 21, 2019 at 9:00 A.M.

After the unveiling presentation, visitors will be encouraged to travel back in time by participating in free docent-led tours of the DuBois Pioneer Home, one of the oldest surviving historic homes in Palm Beach County. Docent-led tours are typically available Tuesdays, Wednesdays (through December 2019) and Thursdays from 10:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. at the home.

The Historic Marker, which includes a brief description of the home’s history, was donated by the Florida State Society Daughters of the American Colonists, a hereditary organization that among other goals, works to research, record and publish deeds of American colonists. Promoting stewardship of natural, archaeological and cultural sites is a core service of PBC Parks.

DuBois Park is located at 19075 DuBois Road in Jupiter. For more information on DuBois Park and other county-operated parks, visit www.pbcparks.com.
