TOWN OF TERRY:
About the Town: The Town of Terry is the seat of Prairie County and is rich in history. It is a small, rural community located at the junction of Hwy 253 and Old Highway 10, just off I-94. Surrounded by rugged buttes known as badlands, Terry sits on the south bank of the Yellowstone River. Terry is a picturesque town made up of friendly faces, tree-lined streets and homespun hospitality. It is a town that despite its close proximity to the interstate has remained largely unaffected by outside change over the years, due in part to the predominance of public lands within the county. Many of the houses, and a majority of the shops, are buildings that were constructed at the turn of the century by family members of people who still live here. The town has a great deal to offer in terms of culture, ambiance, and recreational opportunities. (Terry Growth Policy, 2013)
