Christmas at the Museum 2014
On Sunday December 7, 2014 members of the King & Queen Historical Society and the public attended the annual Christmas Open House at the Courthouse Tavern Museum. The colorful decorations and the holiday music played by Paul and Bessie Guthrie put the crowd in a festive mood. Santa took requests from both young and old, checking in from time to time with the North Pole. Wagon rides were provided by J.J. the miniature horse guided by Brownie Bevan. There was face painting by Zachary. The snow village was on display with the train running through the snowy countryside. The crowd was offered tasty funnel cakes by the Upper King & Queen Ruritan Club and a long table of delicious treats by the Museum Council. Christmas gifts and decorations were available for purchase from vendors Cindy Taylor, Vicki Paige, Alice Sheley, and Susette Jackson. This well attended event was a wonderful start to the holidays!
