WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 16 IS THE RESERVATION DEADLINE for Old Pueblo
Archaeology Center's Thursday November 17 "Third Thursday Food for Thought"
dinner featuring the presentation "The Tucson and Marana Yoeme (Yaqui
Indian) Communities" by Yoeme historian Felipe Molina at El Molinito Mexican
Restaurant, 10180 N. Oracle Rd., Oro Valley, Arizona
6 to 8:30 p.m. Free (Order your own dinner off of the restaurant's
menu)
Yoeme (Yaqui Indian) settlement in Arizona stemmed from the Mexican
government's war with the Yoeme in the state of Sonora during the 1890s and
early 1900s. Toward the end of the nineteenth century there was a steady
migration of Yoeme from Mexico into southern Arizona. By 1940 thousands of
Yoeme lived in well-established communities in Tucson, Marana, Phoenix,
Scottsdale, Eloy, and Somerton, Arizona, and in 1978 the U.S. Government
established the Pascua Yaqui Indian Reservation near Tucson. In this
presentation Yoeme historian Felipe Molina will tell about the early
settlement locations as told to him by his maternal grandfather and
grandmother, his grandmother's cousin, and several elders from Tucson's
original Pascua Village.
Guests may select and purchase their own dinners from the restaurant's
menu. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to benefit Old
Pueblo's educational efforts. Because seating is limited in order for the
program to be in compliance with the Fire Code, those wishing to attend must
call 520-798-1201 and must have their reservations confirmed by Old Pueblo
before 5 p.m. on the Wednesday before the program date.

our sales of the Mustang raffle tickets.
Tickets for the Mustang raffle are 5 for $100 or $25 each. Your
donation to purchase raffle tickets will help Old Pueblo Archaeology Center
provide more archaeology and culture education programs for children who
would not be able to afford our programs without your help. To be entered in
the raffle your contribution for tickets must be received (not postmarked)
by Old Pueblo by Saturday December 3rd so that we can turn the Mustang
raffle tickets in to the Jim Click Automotive Team's coordinator by December
9. The drawing will be held on December 15.

all tickets issued to us and that we return all unsold tickets; therefore,
payment in advance is required in order to obtain tickets. Tickets may be
purchased by check sent to our PO box address listed below, by calling Allen
Dart at 520-603-6181 to provide your Visa, MasterCard, or Discover card
