Sharlot Hall Museum Funding Restoration Request
Arizona's Sharlot Hall Museum is a Prescott landmark and a vital revenue generator for the region. However, recent State budget cuts threaten the Museums viability -- and we need your help to make sure that we can continue to serve the community. --- The State has cut the Museums budget by nearly $100,000 already this year, and has indicated additional cuts -- totaling about a quarter of a million dollars -- for next fiscal year. --- Although were already significantly understaffed, well be forced to reduce payroll further. --- These cuts will result in fewer educational programs, reduced hours, and diminished services. All this adds up to a net loss for our community -- a community that depends heavily on tourism funds generated by organizations such as ours. --- To remain a meaningful cultural attraction and to contribute to the regions economy, Sharlot Hall Museum needs State funding restored. --- Please, PLEASE contact Arizona Governor Jan Brewer and State legislators with this vital message -- Restore funding for Sharlot Hall Museum. Thank you.

Prescott (Yavapai: ʼWi:kwatha Ksikʼita; English pronunciation: /ˈprɛskət/ /ˈprɛskɒt/ pres-kət or pres-kot) is a city in Yavapai County, Arizona, United States. According to 2010 Census, the population of the city is 39,843.[2] The city is the county seat of Yavapai County.[3] In 1864 Prescott was designated as the capital of the Arizona Territory, replacing the temporary capital at Fort Whipple.[4] The Territorial Capital was moved to Tucson in 1867. Prescott again became the Territorial Capital in 1877, until Phoenix became the capital in 1889.
The towns of Prescott Valley, 7 miles (11 km) east; Chino Valley, 16 miles (26 km) north; Dewey-Humboldt, 13 miles (21 km) east, and Prescott, together comprise what is locally known as the Quad-City area. This also sometimes refers to central Yavapai County in general, which would include the towns of: Mayer, Paulden, Wilhoit, and Williamson Valley. Combined with these smaller communities the area had a population of 103,260 as of 2007. Prescott is the center of the Prescott Metropolitan Area, defined by the U.S. Census Bureau as all of Yavapai County. In 2010 Yavapai County had 211,073 residents according to the U.S. Census Bureau, making Metro Prescott the third-largest metropolitan area in Arizona, after Phoenix (4.2 million) and Tucson (1 million).

The Ghosts of The Hotel Vendome
One of the first places I visited when I started collecting ghost stories was the Hotel Vendome in Prescott.
Ken Henderson was working there that day and he had a lot of stories to tell!
This was recorded back in 1991, way before we could record video and photos with our phones and put them on YouTube.
I'm glad Ken and his stories are finally able to be heard!
