Eva Liles and Rebecca Hinton featured at 2020 Annual Meeting

Eva Frady Liles and Rebecca Horton Hinton were featured in 20 minute films as our second installment of the Zebulon Memory Project at Preservation Zebulon’s Annual Meeting on October 1.

The sold out event held nearly 100 people with social distancing provided on the outdoor pavilion, formerly a kitchen building, on the 360 acre farm formerly owned by Avon Privette and bought, run and restored by David and Jill Hicks. This private, pristine, large and beautiful Zebulon farm offered plenty of wide open space for social distancing by members and guests who attended.

The Annual Meeting included a tour of a private, restored antebellum house, the James Bunn home, which was opened to the public for the first time. It also included a BBQ Chicken dinner at the outdoor pavilion presented by sponsor Tommy Massey; and a Preservation Zebulon Year recap and plans for 2021, and election of the slate of officers.
