How the Soggy
Bottom came to be:
Gurley's Soggy Bottom Barn
In
May, 2006, the Joel Gurley
family held its first Memorial
Day Veterans event under tents
in a pasture. Talk began then
about the possibility of a
building to honor the vets, and
the Soggy Bottom Barn idea was
formed.

In
May, 2007, over 300 veterans and
their guests met for its first
gathering at the newly built
Soggy Bottom Barn. The family
oriented music barn has held
many singings and benefits
since, all with the main focus
still on honoring our veterans.

The
Gurleys feel this has been a
community effort and are very
thankful for all the friends,
both old and new, who have
participated in the activities
at the Gurley Soggy Bottom |
