LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — The history and people of Lake County are truly amazing.
Have you ever wondered what Seigler Springs Resort was like years ago? Darlene Hecomovich can tell you because her parents owned the resort.
How about hearing from the man behind the company, Jonas Oil? Or the history of our former television station, LCTV in Lakeport? Yes, Lake County had its own TV station.
Listen to the museum’s oral history interviews and you will learn more.
Lots of memories and stories from the past are retold by members of our community. Native stories are also captured such as the voice of Millie Simon, Supervisor Moke Simon’s aunt. And the story of how the Pomo statute project was envisioned by Scotts Valley Pomo Elder Leslie Miller.
Interviews are filmed in the Weaver Auditorium at the Lower Lake Schoolhouse Museum, utilizing equipment purchased by the Preservation Committee.
They are 30 minutes to two hours long and are viewable on the Museum’s Youtube Channel.
