Join Colquitt for its 150th birthday celebration

Colquitt will celebrate its Sesquicentennial this weekend, November 10 and 11.

The hands of time will be turned back 150 years on the town square. Everyone is getting excited about the

events for the big weekend fun, food, friendship and remembering when.

At 7:30 p.m. Friday, you don't want to miss the MayHaw show, Colquitt's own version of Hee-Haw. The show will once again take place at Cotton Hall.

Then Saturday at 9 a.m., the antique car show will cruise into town with antique cars and farm implement.

At 10 a.m., on the square, the opening ceremony will take place officially announcing Colquitt and Miller County's 150th birthday celebration. Handcrafted arts and

craft exhibitors, people who can demonstrate syrup making, soap making, etc. are still being solicited at this time. Food vendors will be on hand with some of the best

southern cooking you'll find anywhere. The vintage costume contest will be a real dressy affair.

Don't forget, it's all happening in Colquitt November 10 and 11!
