***Since we had some "bots" comment about available tickets. We would like to stress that tickets are only sold by us directly. The only entrance into the event is your name on our list after contacting our Museum Coordinator and dealing directly with her. Anyone else is a scammer**

We are SOLD OUT! for both Paranormal Investigations! All seats have been claimed/reserved. If you have spoken with/emailed our Museum Coordinator directly and she has your name on her list, we look forward to seeing you. As always these events are presale only and due to the nature of the event, we do not accept walk ups the night of either event.

If you missed out on a chance to get tickets, we are doing a waitlist for the spring. send us a message and we can add you to our contact list once we have a date for the spring investigation.

The Fulton PBA would like to extend a big thank you to the Friends of History in Fulton/Pratt House Museum for supporting our 2nd Annual Fulton PBA 5K: Running from the Cops!

The Friends of History have been longtime supporters of the Fulton PBA and our local first responders. Most recently, they hosted a First Responder Luncheon as a way to show their appreciation for those who serve our community. We’re incredibly grateful for their continued generosity and support!

The Friends of History call the historic Pratt House home. Built in 1861 by John Wells Pratt and his wife Harriet, the brick Italianate-style home has been part of Fulton’s history for more than 160 years and was added to the National and State Registers of Historic Places in 2000.

Today, the Pratt House gives visitors a look back at Fulton’s past, including a restored 1861 kitchen and permanent exhibits highlighting local industries, sports, education, transportation, and more. The Friends of History also continue to keep our community’s history alive through educational programs and events like the Hunter Arms Homecoming Weekend and the annual Parade of Trees.

We’re grateful to have an organization in our community that not only works hard to preserve Fulton’s history, but also continues to support the people who serve it.

Thank you, Friends of History, for supporting the Fulton PBA, our local first responders, and this year’s race!
