Heritage Day

 Charles was in charge of a big event held in Yucaipa. The planning took almost a year, but it turned out really well.
 This is a man who is a leader in a native American tribe, who is also running for state assembly. He did some native American music for entertainment.
 A local rabbi made a presentation, including the story of how the first Torah came to the area with a Jewish man who traveled in a Mormon wagon train.

 This is the mayor of San Benardino, talking to Charles. He is a member of the church. The mayor of Yucaipa is also a member, and a descendant of Amasa Lyman, who was the first mayor of San Bernardino.  Charles is a descendant of the second mayor, Charles C. Rich, so it was interesting to have them both represented in that way.


 This is our area Seventy, Elder Misken.
