In our efforts to build relationships and collaborate with other local Historical Societies, we are excited to share that our friends at the Jerome Historical Society have something exciting planned for history buffs with an appreciation for the dramatic!  

Working with the good folks out at Gold King Mine, they are working to put together a fun weekend of family entertainment and historical education at that unique location.  Termed “Jerome Mining Days,” their goal is to put on a variety of scenes, demonstrations, and stories presenting a living history of the Mining Days in Jerome and the surrounding region, including Clarkdale. The event will possibly feature music, family activities, and maybe even food vendors. This event is currently in the planning stages so things may change as they move forward but there are high hopes of making this event a reality.  In the meantime, please save the dates:  Saturday Oct. 23^rd and Sunday Oct. 24^th from 11AM to 5PM each day.

JHS is seeking community participation to make this event happen.  Volunteer opportunities include: story writers, actors and story presenters, guides, ticket sellers/takers, guest services, etc. If anyone is interested in helping JHS please contact Don Feher at feher.sailing@gmail.com or leave a message at the JHS Office @ 928-634-1066.
