April Membership Meeting

On April 24th we held a Zoom meeting where Helen Flach and Charlene Taylor shared photos and insights on the recent Journey to San Diego.  We also were delighted to see a short video of the beautiful Tulip Gardens at Ananda by Roz Worrall. Our President Ray Missman gave an update on the May and June events coming up.  Click here to view the recording.

Modoc: The Tribe That Wouldn't Die

Our own Cheewa James is a great-granddaughter of Modoc warrior Sh-ke-itco (renamed Shacknasty Jim by settlers unable to pronounce his name!). Her grandfather was born in the Lava Beds during the 1872 war. Cheewa was a Lava Beds National Park Service Ranger for two years, walking the battlefields and leading visitors through war sites. Her book "MODOC: The Tribe That Wouldn’t Die" has a newly revised edition (2022). She was the primary consultant and appeared in the hour PBS documentary “The Modoc War,” which aired across the United States.

So click here to hear a fascinating story from one whose knowledge of the Modocs is vast. It’s a story you will not easily forget.
