    logo_clarkdalehistoricalsocietyClarkdale AZ (March 24, 2016) – Come join us for the 7th Annual Clarkdale Historic Building and Home Tour on April 16, 2016, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.   

    Clarkdale, located between Jerome and Sedona in the Verde Valley, was founded by Senator William Clark in 1912 to support his mining interests in Jerome.  Senator Clark established a company town which provided a business district, hospital, schools, park, and housing with amenities that were unheard of at that time in company towns.  Today, many of the company town buildings survive, with 386 buildings qualifying for the National Register of Historic Places. 

    Tickets are $20.00 per person ($5.00 for children 12 years old and under).   All proceeds fund the Clarkdale Historical Society & Museum.  Tickets can be purchased on-line at clarkdaleheritage.org (click “Event Calendar”) or at 3 locations in the Verde Valley:  a) Main Street Café (920 Main St, Clarkdale); b) Clarkdale Market (915 Main St., Clarkdale) and c) Clarkdale Historical Society & Museum (900 First North St., Clarkdale). 

    Ticket holders will enjoy the following:

    • A tour of several historic homes and buildings
    • Van transportation between homes/buildings
    • Musical entertainment, refreshments and cookies at the historic Clarkdale Clubhouse
    • Access to the Clarkdale Historical Society & Museum’s regular and special exhibits

    The first tour will begin at 9 a.m.; the last tour will depart at 3 p.m.  Please note that the tour is not handicapped accessible.  Also, to respect the wishes of homeowners, pets are not allowed on the tour.

    Coinciding with the Home Tour are re-enactments of Clarkdale’s famous 1928 robbery of the Bank of Arizona (on Main Street, Clarkdale).  These will be staged at 10:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m.  Attendance at the re-enactments is free.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
