I found this picture in our old house while cleaning out some things in our basement. So I am pretty sure the house in the background is 32 Cabot Ave. My question is who are these people?

It has been awhile.....

It has been awhile since my last post. Hopefully, I can get back on track! I am featuring a few pictures from a wonderful collection of memories compiled by Richard and Betty Brooks. Stop by and see it!

We had an amazing crowd at our Open House today. Thank you for all who came out! Please join us
April 10th at 6:00 pm for our next meeting. We need you!

Grand Re-opening Announced

We will host an open house (our grand re-opening) on Sunday March 25th from 2:00-4:00 at the fire station. Bring a friend!

Coming Soon...........................
The grand re-opening of the Alabama City Fire Hall! Watch this site for Open House dates!!!!!

This is a blast from my past! Not exactly sure of the year. I do miss the purple and gold this football season!

July

If you have not been to the fire station lately....it is HOT! Miserable is more like it. Therefore, we will NOT meet until August 14th, Tuesday at 6:00. See you then!

Work Day

Our work day was a successful one, even though there were a very few there.

Here are some things we are looking at doing.

1. Ask the city to paint the walls inside and fix the ceiling in the meeting room.
2. Get Steve Temple to blow up some of our pictures for the walls.
3. Ben took a very old picture of the mill (before the new parts were built) to be re-framed.
4. Begin looking at getting back on the tour.
   
5. Have the city look at our water problem (water in bathroom off)
6. Need someone to help Max get his section together (he just had back surgery).

Please contact our members who are "stray" and encourage them to come back! We need everyone! Invite your friends to join! Our only member requirement is an interest in Alabama City.

The Beginning

In 1998, Councilman Ben Reed and a group of interested individuals formed the Alabama City Historical Association and leased the old Alabama City fire station from the City of Gadsden to be used for meetings and for forming a museum.
The purpose of such a club was for collecting, maintaining and preserving the history of Alabama City and its people.
Membership is open to any interested individual who takes on the same interests as the club. Although there are no monetary dues, members are asked for their time. The club meets the second Tuesday of every month.
Tours and field trips are welcome by appointment. For more information, contact Ben Reed (256-546-4762 or Julie Payne 256-546-7720).
