    and we did _nothing_ for the bicentennial. I work at the Depot downtown, it is a shame how little people know about the history of our fine town.

      there were several bicentennial events throughout the year. I''m surprised you didn't hear about them as they were well publicized! Each city district had a party with the biggest event being District 1 party downtown! Giant cake, lots of activities around the square, historical signs and so much more!

      I was a volunteer during the bicentennial celebrations and came across different tapes they wanted me to edit for different uses!

    I don't remember any special function for opening the vault in 2005. My family lived in Paint Rock Valley right after the Civil War...marched right through the area on the way to Shiloh eventually. Thought it was so pretty, would return right after the war.

      The public opening of the 1955 vault was in January 2005 I believe. There was quite a crowd present! I’ll see if I can find my footage!

      No, it was opened in 2005 and seal was broke and everything inside was wet!

      Every place isn't for every person. Horrible? For you perhaps.
