On October 5, 2013, the 8th Annual Boonville
Days – Living History Fair was held at the Brazos Center. This event,
orchestrated by the Brazos Valley Museum of Natural History, highlighted life
in historic Boonville and provided opportunities to learn about the history
of Brazos County. In addition, a number
of organizations – many of which were service organizations – were present. A number of members of the Brazos Heritage
Society were also present and contributed to this learning experience.
Nat Hilliard, Immediate Past President of the
Society, showed how butter was churned, which was a big hit with attendees.
In addition, Sheila Fields, Research Chair, had an informative display about
the history of Boonville. Randy
and Stephanie Hilliard, Event Co-Chairs, were present and provided information
about the Society.
Dan Beto, the Society’s President, took a
number of photographs during the day, many of which may be seen in the Smilebox
below.
