Battle of San Gabriel/Steinheimer Treasure
Speaker Mike Cox, winner of the A.C. Greene Award given to distinguished Texas authors, writes a weekly syndicated newspaper column called Texas Tales. Mike will discuss Manuel Flores' insurrection efforts in early Texas history, which ended in the fight of the San Gabriel River, as well as the legend of the man trailing Flores and his men, Karl Steinheimer, and his lost treasure. Program starts at 10:00 am at Grace Heritage Center and is open to the public.
See Programs/Projects for information on our 2012 Scholarship Competition, which will award two $1000 scholarships to Georgetown graduating seniors.
