Wow, the summer of 2022 is coming to a close and many great oppertunities have landed on this weekend. So here is a brief list and locations with some information so you can stay connected, stay informed.
Maybe Lotta Crabtree, who captivated the Miner Street saloons and other Gold Rush towns in the mid-1800s. She loved Yreka and is frequently seen prowling downtown, wearing her long, flowing dress, very very late at night and wouldn't miss a chance to sing one of her famous songs–if the crowd might be interested.
