and activities of the American Bicentennial Celebration. It particularly focuses on events in Arizona. Many
materials are also included from the American Revolutionary Bicentennial Commission. Bicentennial events were
coordinated by a Bicentennial Commission. A Prescott Bicentennial Committee was formed from Prescott people. The
local committee identified projects, approved them, and sent them to the state and requested funds. Some of the
most significant projects that were done were the moving of the Bashford House and the formation of the Yavapai
Heritage Foundation for surveying historic properties. Cleaning up the Granite Creek was another notable project.
These projects were administered by the state commission. | | | Repository: | Sharlot Hall Museum | | | Subjects: | Bashford House | | | Similar Items: | Find Similar Guides |
