Yreka’s loss, Tulelake’s gain…. hopefully. Yreka canceled the Shasta Salute to America Motorcycle Rally a few months ago and there was quite an ado over it-see the post here. The Shasta Salute to America Motorcycle Rally packed their saddle bags and moved a few towns east to Tulelake who was quite willing to approve the needed liquor license.
August 28th thru Sept 1st you can jump on your hog and head over to the Tulelake Fairgrounds for an exciting weekend of adult fun. We are planning on going over, but aren’t partial to the adult events. I’m just interested in seeing the Veteran’s Traveling Memorial Wall. Watch for that report next week, hopefully.
Tulelake should have quite a boon this fall. Directly on the heels of the motorcycle rally is the Tulelake Butte Valley Fair - that will be some wholesome, family fun! I bet they have fantastic baked potatoes, curly fries and hash browns! The fair starts Sept 4th thru Sept 7th.
If you aren’t familar with Tulelake check out these websites to get a little more familiar with the area before heading over-
- Tule-lake.com beautiful pictures and interesting art!!
- Tulelake Wildlife Refuge is not for the birds. Oh!, I mean it is for the birds:)
- Lava Beds National Monument - it’s a “blast!”
That should keep you busy! But if you need just a little more, here’s a very informative video about potato harvesting in Tulelake:)
