The Saving of Wallowa Lake Lodge
Speakers: Dr. Diana Sharples (Wilde) and Judy (Hall-Griswald) Goodman
There are hundreds of lodges, inns and hotels in America’s West, but only a handful of historic Great Lodges.
Constructed from the turn of the century through the 1930’s, the list reads like a ‘who’s who’ of people and places from a bygone era.
Wallowa Lake Lodge has long served as a cornerstone in the community of Joseph, Oregon.
When placed on the market, a local grassroots effort formed Lake Wallowa Lodge LLC with the purpose of acquiring the venerable lodge and surrounding lands with the intent on maintaining its cultural and historical integrity. Join us for this remarkable journey to save one of our nations historic institutions!
Doors open at 3:00 p.m. for patrons wishing to participate in The Listening Project (audio postcards of the lodge) or to create a prayer flag in support of the proposed Conservation Easement protecting surrounding old growth forest and river wetland habitats & species.
