Colorado area Cobalts upcoming cruise
Our local Colorado Cobalt club 5280Cobalts (we accept all makes/models) have a cruise upcoming. Details below
!!Bishops Castle Cruise 2013 UPDATE!!!
When: Aug, 25th 2013
Wow this cruise just keeps getting better and better! In addition to a stop at the famous Bishops Castle we have now added to the festivities of the day with a stop at the Colorado Prison Museum in Canon City. So now we will be stopping off at two historical locations in ONE cruise. I know a lot of you are thinking the entries into both locations will "break the bank" ... Well you will be happy to know that bishops castle is FREE! and the Museum will cost a measly $7(working on group rates so could be lower).
With this addition to the Bishops Castle Cruise 2013 you damn sure don't want to miss it! Here is some info on the museum. Don't miss out!
Exhibits at the Museum cover over 140 years of history, depicting prison life from early Territorial Prison days forward. The cell house has 2 floors, the upper level with 30 inmate cells, hallway, office space, and gift shop, while the lower level houses the dining room, archival storage (former trustee sleep area), general purpose room, original kitchen, isolation cells, Federal Prison Display, and laundry room. Each cell on the upper level tells a story of some phase of life behind walls and bars. Exhibits inlcude the office furnishings used by Warden Roy Best, and documentation on the Prison Riots of 1929 and 1947. Other exhibits feature infamous inmates such as Alfred Packer (convicted of cannibalism), Antone Woode ( a twelve-year old convicted of murder), working and living conditions, punishments, and assorted other topics. All of the artifacts and exhibits depict lives of inmates and guards as they lived and worked in the Colorado Prisons.
