11 The Heritage Center could be considered the heart of Yuma Proving Ground (YPG). It the keeper of the installation’s history. The community welcomes and bids farewell to its leaders in the front lawn of the center. It’s the first stop for those looking to learn more about YPG’s important work testing equipment for the Warfighter.

In May, the Heritage Center will reopen and visitors will start noticing some changes.
Heritage Center Curator Bill Heidner and docent Vince Lacey have been busy working on converting the center into and an unmanned heritage display. When the National Museum of United States Army History opened in 2020, the decision was made to close smaller museums. The bright side is that YPG’s self-guided Heritage Center will focus solely on the installation’s history.
