LIVING HISTORY DAY
A windy day in Buffalo, WY. A nice crowd attended the event sponsored by the local Museum. There was music, square dancing and performances by the local Basque dancers. The cabin on the Courthouse lawn was open and there were displays set up all around the buildings. The local Basque club was selling lukana sandwiches. At approximately 12:15 there was a brief ceremony, featuring local artist, Mike Thomas, and the bronze sculpture of Nate Champion was unveiled. Present at the event were 6 Champion descendants, 2 men and 4 women.
