Q.What role has the Ku Klux Klan had in San Marcos? A. I found quite a few articles written about the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) in the archives of the “San Marcos Daily Record,” found online at the library’s website: hank. ci.san-marcos.tx.us/ Docs/History/Local. htm. MOST of them were very positive. As Dr. Holt, the archivist for the Calaboose African American History Museum described it, San Marcos was a “Klan Friendly” town. (youtube. com/watch?v=CxHStr6wfqQ) The KKK donated money to the hospital, encouraged people to go to church and put a good face on their activities. It functioned here much as other social organizations would, and the city welcomed the KKK openly. However, there was a sinister and deceptive side to their public dealings. For example, on July 20, 1923, the KKK pub-lished a letter in the “San Marcos Record”notifying readers that the KKK had a secret “investigating committee” to report wrongdoing by citizens. In the very same letter, citizens were assured that “it is the policy of the Ku Klux Klan to assist in all worthy causes.” Another example involves the burning of the First Baptist Church in San Marcos in 1873. While they gave money to the community and they stressed morality, religion and going to church, they burnt down a church. 02/26/2023 12:00 AM    1

Wimberley Players present ‘The Importance of Being Earnest’ by Oscar Wilde
The comedy, “The Importance of Being Earnest” opens on the Wimberley Players stage Feb. 24 and runs through March 19. Written by Oscar Wilde, the play exposes the absurdity of Victorian norms when two gentlemen lead double lives for the sake of living and loving their way. Their comic ruse provokes difficulties for themselves and their ladies, delivered with Wilde’s classic wit and charm. 02/19/2023 05:00 AM
