The Crowley Museum recreates the interior of a frontier general store, wirth many of the implements once offered for sale. You can lose track of time looking at the collection of old-fashioned tools and dry goods.

In the museum, there are photographs from the Jimmy Peters Florida Cowboy Collection.
Old-fashioned “preachin,’” gospel music and cemetery tours make Saturday’s Heritage Festival at Crowley Natural and Historical History all the more fun.
Leave your own six-shooters at home but watch out for a cowboy shootout with the Hole in the Head Gang. Even more dangerous could be an encounter with a snake oil salesman. Shows such as this will be repeated throughout the day at Crowley.
