BLACK BART HOLD-UP DAYS HEADS FOR
SUTTER CREEK JUNE 21 AND 22, 2008
By Marcia Oxford
SUTTER CREEK - On June 21 and 22, 2008, the
second annual Black Bart hold-up days come to Sutter Creek. Flash
back to 1883 when the streets were still dirt, "horse-power"
actually referred to horses and 300 local mines were producing
gold. And Black Bart robbed the Wells, Fargo & Co. stage coach that
left from Sutter Creek! A real stage coach with a horse-drawn team
will leave the American Exchange Hotel each day on Main Street at
10am, 12, 2, and 4pm and be held up as it races through town.
Historical actors will perform on Main Street venues without
charge. See the Kit Carson Mountain Men, their camp site, black
powder and hatchet
demonstrations. Sierra Six Guns and
Sidekicks, Time and Time Again Re-enactors and Sierra Nevada Guns
for Hire will all contribute to the daily excitement. Pan for gold
on Randolph and Main Streets, courtesy of Sutter Gold Mine.
Children’s activities will
be offered by Amador Recreation Department and will include a dunk
tank and old-time games on Spanish & Main Streets. You may spy
1880’s base ball players roaming the town. Sunday, they will hold
two league games at the high school field complete with 1880’s
equipment and rules! Look for fine art by artist displaying their
extraordinary work in the grassy area at Sutter Creek Inn, the
Foxes Inn Renaissance Ridge Alpacas and the historic Violich home.
Local merchants will be
arrayed in 1880’s garb and all are welcome to participate in a
wonderful costume contest. Check in at Voyages on Main St. Sutter
Creek for costume contest registration. Don’t just read about our
history. Experience it!
