by Matt Hart, General Manager, The County Seat
The TCS Bloody Mary is gently shaken, served over ice with a bacon salt rim, slice of bacon and garnished with a Pepperoncini, Pepperjack cheese & green chile cornbread muffin.
One of the best kept secrets in Prescott, The County Seat, is a local gathering place, mercantile and restaurant that upsets the norm for options in Prescott’s downtown Courthouse Square.
Mon. - Fri. | 3:00 PM - 6:00 PM 1/2 off all Wine, $5 Flatbreads
Sat. - Sun. | 9:00 AM-3:00 PM
Photography by Debby Wolvos
With the goal of creating a casual sanctuary for locals and visitors alike, The County Seat brings a bright and modern vibe to the small, but bustling historic downtown area and is the best place to find good food and good health, served daily.
It offers an array of hearty sandwiches, robust salads and grab-and-go items paired with a full-coffee bar and craft cocktails.
The expansive 6,500-squarefoot restaurant offers fast-casual service within a coffeehouse-like setting complete with an Instagram worthy wraparound bar, lounge seating, custom communal dining tables and a curated mercantile area of trendy retail offerings.
While the simplicity of the menu may be deceiving, the dedication of the kitchen staff led by Chef Kelsey Salamon yields a-made-from-scratch flavor that is hard to find — making the trip up the stairs well worth it.
The product of Proprietor Skyler Reeves’ vision and daily execution by general managers Stephanie Hollingsworth and myself, The County Seat is designed to bring the outdoors in with large windows, skylights and bright walls blending harmoniously with trellises overflowing with lush greenery.
Inspired décor from Andrea Wojciak Interiors create a space both welcoming and familiar while maintaining an everyday sophistication not found elsewhere in downtown.
Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week, and staking its claim in what is arguably the best location in town, The County Seat is where you go to get the best chicken sandwich of your life and a refreshing glass of wine while overlooking the beloved local landmark, the Yavapai County Courthouse Plaza.
Whether coming in for a quick bite, a locally roasted coffee from FreeForm Coffee Roasters or setting up for a study session, The County Seat welcomes guests 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. For more, visit www.countyseataz.com.

Yavapai College’s Performing Arts Department took us back into the era of speakeasies, bathtub gin, and “All That Jazz” April 14-24. Kander & Ebb’s bawdy musical tale of a shady lawyer and two Windy City showgirls gone really, really wrong featured 40-plus performers and was directed by Professor Nanette Hofer, who’d been retooling the production since its abrupt cancellation in the spring of 2020.
The Boys and Girls Clubs of Central Arizona is proud to present the 6th annual Dancing for the Stars event, the primary fundraiser of the year! The event consists of an exciting dance competition Sept. 9-10 where local celebrities are paired with professional dancers to perform a wide variety of dances to raise funds to support the
kids in the local clubs.
The Dancing for the Stars Reveal Party took place on April 20 at the Hassayampa Inn in downtown Prescott to announce the professional and celebrity dancers who will be performing in this much-anticipated community event.

by Scott O’Neal, The Scott O’Neal Band
“Put on my blue suede shoes, and I boarded the plane. Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues in the middle of the pouring rain.”
This quote from the Marc Cohn song rang true for us as the band traveled to Memphis. The Scott O’Neal band placed first in Northern Arizona’s International Blues Challenge and earned the right to compete on Beale Street against acts from around the world.
Our Memphis set had been rehearsed and played at our regular gigs since August. We knew our material and pulled it off with precise accuracy. We were showered with positive comments and accolades from the audience and other musicians, as well.
Unfortunately, the decisions were made by four independent judges
who are ruled by their own criteria and not the opinion of the crowd. Needless to say, we did not come out on top in the competition this time, but we got an education that will be put to good use and hopefully take us further the next time.
That being said, we had an amazing week in Memphis and made a new world of contacts and new friends.
Put on in May by the International Blues Foundation, it is said to be “the world’s largest gathering of blues music and musicians,” and if you’re a fan of the genre it’s an experience you’ll never forget!
There are two categories in the competition: solo-duo acts and the band category. For three nights every club on Beale Street (and there are a lot of them) hosts six to eight
acts. There is literally more great music than one person can take in.
That’s not the only attraction to be experienced in town either. You can go to Sun Records and hear the stories of BB King, Howlin’ Wolf, Carl Perkins, Ike Turner, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash and hold the very microphone that all of them — along with Elvis — sang into.
Then there’s STAX Museum of Soul music. That’s the one we enjoyed the most.
On top of all the historical sites is the food; oooh, the food! There’s Gus’s world famous fried chicken (great!). and I’ve yet to find a bad barbecue joint there.
In closing, I just want to say, “Thank you Memphis, and The Scott O’Neal Band is not done.”

(PAAR). The Quad Cities median home sales price was $455,000 in April. Home sales fell off last April’s pace by 6.8% to finish April 2022 at 355.
The median sales price in Prescott was $602,333, an increase of 18.7% compared to April 2021 and the highest median price throughout the Quad Cities. However, the Prescott median sales retreated 7.5% from its 2022 highwater mark of $651,500 in March. April home sales in the area matched the April 2021 total of 138. Homes went under contract in a median time of six days.
Prescott Valley’s median sales price grew by 15.5% from a year ago to reach $440,000 in April. The April median price also declined 4.3% from
its 2022 high of $460,000 in March. Six days represents the median time a home was on the market there. The 111 homes sold during March were one less than the March 2021 total.
“Today’s homebuyers remain motivated to find their next home in the Quad Cities before any additional mortgage rate increases,” said George Beitzel, 2022 PAAR president.
“However, as rising mortgage rates and inflation stretch buyers’ budgets, they are becoming more restrained in their offers. While Prescott Area REALTORS® are still helping buyers and sellers navigate multiple offers, the red hot bidding wars of the past 18 months are cooling as are final selling prices.”
“While rising interest rates and the overall state of the economy will undoubtedly continue to have an impact on the housing market, the typical life circumstances that result in someone wanting to buy or sell a home will remain constant and generate activity throughout our region,” said Beitzel. “Prescott
Area REALTORS® continue to project an active late spring and summer market in the Quad Cities with some moderation in closed sales and price growth.”
Chino Valley had a median price increase of 36.9% compared to a year ago, reaching $423,750 in April. The 36 closed homes sales were down 18.2% compared to April 2021. Dewey-Humboldt had 27 closed home sales, a decrease of 6.9% from a year ago. The median sales price was $430,000, an increase of 15.3%.
There were 615 homes listed for sale in the Quad Cities at the end of April, a 64.9% increase from the April 2021 total of 373.
Editor’s Note: All data is compiled from the Multiple Listing Service of the Prescott Area Association of REALTORS® and includes single-family, manufactured, mobile, modular, condos and townhouse residential activity in Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley and Dewey-Humboldt.
