Lighthouse Lecture Series - Katy Tahja
Past Events
On Saturday, March 16 at 4 p.m. Katy Tahja will present "Orr Hot Springs and other county 'Hot' spots." While the focus of the lecture is Orr Hot Springs attention will be given to the other mineral springs resorts in Mendocino County including those near Point Arena.
The public may not realize the importance these resorts played in the economic history of the county. Over 120 years ago they attracted tourists and still do to this day.
Where were they? Do they exist today? Are there hidden ones still out in the back country? What’s the oldest hot springs resort in the county? Come find answers at the lecture!
The Lighthouse Lecture Series is presented on the 3rd Saturday of each month at 4 p.m. (5 p.m. June - August). Check our Calendar of Events for the presenters and topics.
