In 1997, Russ Imrie interviewed Howard Harris in Hollister. Allan Lundell was there to video it. Howard has since passed on . Howard, his wife Bess, Allan, Sun Marian, Pat and Russ talked for an hour - this is an incredible historical video. Howard was an unimpeachable witness to some true California Indian history history as well as a great civic leader, 4H figure and a part of Indian Canyon... we thank him. |

Thanks To Janeen Antoine for
the 
UCSF Students and Professors visiting Indian Canyon late
in September, 2004. Many, many students and teachers are welcomed to Indian
Canyon on a continuing basis going back a decade. If your class would
like to visit the canyon please contact us via our email link at the
top of this page. FYI, and to save me from repeating this bit of
cultural information again and again... it is traditional for anyone
meeting a distinguished or elder Native American to make a small
present of tobacco and shaking their hand when meeting them for the
first time. - thanks, Russ NEW!
Pick from the "jump menu" below for tobacco and other links, ENTER our main resource at the bottom of this page
