History

FOUNDED IN 1864 as a pioneer settlement on the edge of American civilization in what was then New Mexico-Arizona territory, Prescott retains its frontier spirit and western pride.

Prescott staked its claim as a place unlike any other when 150 years ago, the first 50 inhabitants hand built 14 log structures from native timbers. That helped define the community. Today, with a population exceeding 40,000, Prescott still is rugged, picturesque and altogether distinctly proud.

American Ranch Rd

Located in the central highlands of Arizona and nestled against the 1.25 million acres of Prescott National Forest, the “Mile High City” known as Prescott boasts four moderate seasons.

OUTDOOR RECREATION Name your choice.

Prescott’s got it all ARTS AND CULTURE Something for every taste.

Most of all, you’ll enjoy genuine Western hospitality surrounded by a heritage that makes Prescott one of the “Top Five—Must see” destinations in Arizona, according to USA Today.

You’ll find most anything you want on historic Whiskey Row. Saunter through the same batwing saloon doors where Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, Big Nose Kate and other legendary heroes—and scoundrels—would belly up to the bar.

Dining

AS YOU STROLL PAST any of the more than 700 buildings on the National Register of Historic Places cited on the National Historic Register, you’ll be tempted to step in for a fast meal—or a fine dining experience. You’ll probably be pleased that of the more than 200 places to eat in the city, a majority are “hometown” owned and managed. They range from “Mom n’ Pop” eateries to sophisticated dining in elegant surroundings. You’ll be surprised at the ethnic variety available, too.

Of course, you can sample locally brewed awardwinning beverages at micro breweries or wine-tasting shops. You may want to try one of the newest. It is a recently opened meadery, just up Gurley Street on the way to Sharlot Hall Museum.

If you’re of such a mind, visits some local pubs and try some of the wines which come from Arizona wineries and vineyards.

ou won’t escape the vibrant feeling that you are welcome, no matter where you roam the historic downtown area. Locals will greet you with genuine smile and

“Howdy” or “Nice to see you.” In the center of town, looming large over a square block ringed by century-old trees is the oft-photographed granite Courthouse.

It’s the focal point for many festivals and events from late April through October.

A Special Place KNOWN AS ARIZONA’S CHRISTMAS CITY, during winter months, the area around the Courthouse is home for unequaled holiday festivities. You won’t want to miss any of them. Festivities begin in late November after Thanksgiving.

The first is the colorful Holiday Light Parade,” where elaborate decorated floats and holiday music will have you smiling. Ultimately, you may wind up at the community bonfire, just up the street at Mile High Middle School.

Then the first week of December features the colorful daytime Christmas Parade, with more than 75 entries. It involves almost everyone in town.

If you’re lucky enough to be here in early December, you’ll beam when the Courthouse Plaza lights 27

turn the dark into a kaleidoscope of holiday colors. This year will be the 61st annual lighting. You’ll join local students, townspeople and visitors in singing traditional Christmas carols.

Just up the street two blocks, you’ll enjoy a Frontier Christmas staged by the Sharlot Hall Museum. You’ll be transported back to how pioneers celebrated Christmas.

If you like holiday music, you’ll relish performances of more than 100 local musicians—students, townspeople, churches and individuals—during the melodious Acker Musical Showcase the second weekend of December.

Businesses throughout downtown open doors to performers, who sing, play instruments and entertain – and invite you to join in.

Seniors now have greater flexibility and new opportunity to purchase their retirement home 60

visit-Prescott.com

A new FHA rule enabling the purchase of a home with a reverse mortgage is giving senior adults greater flexibility when it comes to where they live and the type of home they live in.

This new means of financing the purchase of a home has created the opportunity for seniors to downsize, move to a house that is more comfortable, safe, and is convenient to services, or move closer to family.

The qualifying age for a reverse mortgage is 62 or older, and it does not affect social security and medicare benefits. “We are experiencing a surge of seniors who are buying a home with the reverse mortgage,” Bill Binkey, Frontier Financial said.

A house purchased under this new program must be a primary residence and will require a large down payment. However there are no monthly payments required as long as one spouse remains in the home.

To learn more about the reverse mortgage purchase program, you can contact Bill Binkey. He will provide a free reverse mortgage informational package and confidential estimate. For more information call 928-237-9599.
