This memorial stands in tribute to Green DeWitt, Empresario and founder of the DeWitt Colony, whose leadership helped shape the early settlement of Gonzales and surrounding areas. Alongside him, we honor Sarah Seely DeWitt, a Texas patriot and matriarch whose legacy includes the crafting of the now-iconic "Come and Take It" flag — sewn by her and her daughter, Naomi, in defense of liberty.
The Shiner Hobo Band performances are full of spontaneous laughs, surprise solos, and inside jokes between bandmates that somehow include the whole crowd. You'll hear their classic theme song, The Shiner Song, and polkas so lively they might get you dancing on your way to the beer line.
