    logo_sedonamuseum2Sedona AZ (June 11, 2019) – The Sedona Heritage Museum will host another round of their popular local history tours, on October 2, 3, 4, and 5, this time visiting historic sites, homesteads and buildings while following the Red Rock Loop Road.

    20190611_Schuerman-045
    Schuerman homestead house, eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, will be part of the tour.

    ‘Red Rock’ was what the area around the base of Cathedral Rock was known as long before anyone ever heard of the name ‘Sedona’.  Tour guide Paul Thompson, grandson of Oak Creek Canyon’s first permanent Anglo settler J.J. Thompson, spent his earliest growing up years in Red Rock. Thompson leads these tours every year as a way of sharing his family’s long history in the area and as a way to give back to the Museum for their preservation work.

    The tour will visit the Chavez place, Dumas Ranch, Schuerman-Red Rock Cemetery, Schuerman family homestead house, the Armijo homestead house (on the National Register of Historic Places), ruins of our first school (1891), site of an early Oak Creek vineyard and an irrigation flume made of barrels, plus other sites, while hearing stories of the historic themes and people who inhabited this ‘original’ seat of civilization for our area.

    Sedona Gift Shop

    Tours are October 2, 3, 4, and 5 from 2 p.m.-5 p.m.  Space is limited on the luxury coaches.  Tickets are $60/Museum members, and $70/non-members and available for purchase at the Museum or by calling 928-282-7038.

    The Sedona Heritage Museum is located in Jordan Historical Park at 735 Jordan Rd. in Uptown Sedona.  The Museum is housed in historic structures on the National Register of Historic Places.  www.sedonamuseum.org

    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→
