ANNUAL FIRE DEPARTMENT CONSIGNMENT SALEAn Old Home Day like no other! If you can't find it at this sale, you don't need it!
Schedule your class reunion for the day after, since you're likely to be here anyway! You can rent the old lunchroom at the Tiger Pride Center or you can rent the old Table Rock Theater, both about the same price and both provide a great venue space for a small group. For more information: TableRockHistory@gmail.com. |

the table rock fairIt will be our fourth annual Table Rock Fair, reviving a longstanding tradition that came to an end almost 20 years ago.
The agenda will likely be similar to last year. A car show from Noon to 4, a parade at 4:00. Kids games will then begin and we expect to beef them up even more because they have been very popular. We hope to have two bands . And food, plenty of food. And more. |

reunion of the families of old st. john's catholic churchThe Table Rock Historical Society will host a reception to welcome the old St.families to the museum of St. John's Catholic Church. The church closed 51 years ago, but many people well remember going to church there.
The date is very tentative and subject to change. Plans will be posted as they progress. There may be a choir. There may be a short presentation. There may be special guests. |
