Auction Item Addition

We started gathering items for our big auction this fall. We will post pictures here when we get them in. Remember, you can donate to our auction. Please see us at our monthly gatherings and yard sales in the valley.

This is a painting by an Alabama artist, Betty Sims. This painting is currently in our store, and can be seen at our monthly yard sales. It is even nicer in person.

Paint Rock Valley 2009 Kick Off Meeting

Y'all are welcome to join us for a planning meeting before our yard sale year starts. We'll meet the first Sunday of March to kick off the new year for the Paint Rock Valley History Project. Location is same as our monthly yard sales. We'll be there 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. We will discuss our "First Sunday" yard sales, a special April event, and the big auction scheduled for October. Also, we'll do some organizing of the store.

This is a great opportunity to get involved with our group. We are friendly and inviting. You'll hear great tales of the valley years gone by, and maybe some from yesterday.

See you Sunday, 1-March, 2009 in the beautiful Paint Rock Valley.

We have a 19" color tv to donate to the Pain Rock Valley auction.
It is about 15 years old or so and works great.

The mission of the Paint Rock Valley History Project

The Paint Rock Valley History Project of the Jackson County Historical Association has a goal to preserve history of the beautiful Paint Rock Valley. One of or many ways to preserve the history of our valley is in audio histories. Transcripts are viewable at our monthly yard sales.

We are a non-profit organization, depending on the generosities of the community to help us preserve our history. One way you can help our organization is to join us at our monthly yard sales. We set up at the Old Hubert & Ruby Hall Store Building and Grounds in the Swaim Community on Co. Rd. #9 in Upper Paint Rock Valley, first Sunday of the month, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. We offer many nice items for sale. For example, we have hard to find books, all sizes and styles of clothing, electronics, and much more. Come by to see our items, and learn about the history of the Paint Rock Valley.
