    The Jerome Chamber of Commerce is ready for the most talked about event of the year, The Jerome Historic Home and Building Tour, now in its 49th year. Prepare for a wild ride on this guided tour as large vans drive visitors to each location. Docents explain the history and details of the homes. Haven United Methodist Church will once again open its historic doors for a refreshment and bathroom break at the halfway point in the tour. Church members are planning a fry bread sale to raise money for the food bank.

    Tickets will be sold online for the first time. Of course, tickets can also be purchased at Spook Hall on the day of the event. Tour director Deni Phinney suggests coming on Sunday if you would like to have a less crowded experience. Tickets go on sale at 9:00 am and the first van leaves at that time. Last call for tickets is at 3:00pm so that visitors can end the tour by 5.  Also, instead of selling tickets at the old firehouse on Main Street, guests can have the comfort and the shelter of Spook Hall and enjoy entertainment and seats while waiting for the shuttle to begin this wonderful tour. The drama club from Mingus Union High School will perform scenes from their hit show “Guys and Dolls.” There is plenty of parking at the 300 level parking lot, just past the new fire house. Signs will lead the way and a small bus will bring visitors from the parking lot to Spook Hall to purchase tickets.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
