Save the Date for Lawbreakers and Peacemakers


A lively historical re-enactment by the Lawbreakers and Peacemakers will be woven into the Airing of the Quilts show, Saturday, May 14, at 2 PM in front of the Old Jail. Everyone is invited to attend. The performance is free.

While tickets are not required to view the re-enactment, they are required for visitors who also want to view the quilts. They are $5 and are available at the Rock Gym and Old Jail May 14 (9-5) and 15 (9-4). A ticket admits visitors to the quilt show at the Rock Gym, Good Shepherd Presbyterian Church and
Old Jail Museum Complex. Proceeds from the quilt show benefit the South Sebastian County Historical Society.

Come on out and see these tough hombres take on Greenwood history.
