Indian Day Honors Indigenous Peoples

Pomo and Elem Native Americans have inhabited what is now known as Lake County for millennia. The free Indian Day Celebration honors their traditions and even gives the public a chance to experience some of them. The day begins with an opening prayer and continues with traditional dances, Native cuisine (including free Indian tacos), a craft fair, live music, and vendors. The festivities happen on September 10, 1–4 p.m., at the Konocti Vista Casino and Resort marina lawn in Lakeport. For more information, go to tinyurl.com/45bhkk72.
