‘Coffee and Conversation’ each Saturday morning from 9AM-noon at the historic Ransom School House, 717 North Academy Street, Murfreesboro, TN
That’s right, each Saturday morning – unless otherwise noted – we enjoyed hosting ‘Coffee & Conversation’ at the Ransom School House, 717 North Academy Street, from 9AM-noon.
Please join us each Saturday morning from 9AM-noon at the Ransom School House, 717 North Academy Street for ‘Coffee & Conversation’.
Rutherford Reflections is out!
Yes, the fourth (and latest) installment of Greg Tucker’s exceedingly popular series relating to Rutherford County history is available at the Ransom School House Museum, 717 North Academy Street, Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
Come purchase you copy each Saturday morning between 9AM-noon (unless otherwise noted) for only $20.00 for members, $24.00 for non-members.
By the way, did you know membership in the RCHS is only $25 a year? We’ll even include a copy of our popular ‘Pictures and the Stories they Tell’, a $45 value, as an added bonus.
I have a better idea: join the RCHS for $25, THEN purchase a copy of ‘Rutherford Reflections’ for only $45!!!(*) for both! (Click here for details)
