Sorensen’s Resort Hope Valley continues its Eastern Sierra history series with a 50-minute slide show presentation, “The Wedding of the Waters” on Sunday, April 30 at 1 p.m.

In October of 1937, Catholic Priest Father John Crowley carried out one of the grandest events to have taken place in the Eastern Sierra, in a magnificent three-day pageant. Over 50,000 people watched in amazement as a special gourd of water was moved from the highest lake in the United States to the lowest spot in the western hemisphere by a host of characters including Hop Along Cassidy, an Indianapolis 500 winner, the 20-Mule Team Wagon and many more. Even the President of the United States and the Governor of California were involved.

The program is presented by David and Gayle Woodruff. It is free and open to the public and will be inside the Café at Sorensen’s on CA Hwy 88. For more information call David at 760 920-8061.
