You mean that it no longer is being held in June? I remember it being held in early to mid June in summers past. Why was it changed to the Labor Day weekend?
I don’t know the answer to that, Kevin. I’ve been with the museum about 6 years now, and since I’ve been active, it’s been Labor Day weekend. It originally, during my time, was both Saturday and Sunday, but now it’s just Saturday, and that seems to work for most people.

Thank you John. Actually I misspoke. I meant to ask about the Tuolumne Logging Jamboree which is held in early June. I haven’t seen anything posted about it yet this year and can’t find anything about it on Google. They don’t publicize ahead of time very well. All of a sudden it creeps up on you and it’s upon you. It’s held on a weekend. Do you by any chance know when it is going to be this year? Thanks John and I hope to see you at both events.
Kevin,
It’s called the Tuolumne Lumber Jubilee and it runs from June 9 through the 12th.
John
