of slavery in the United States,
on Saturday, June 20, from 11
a.m.to 3 p.m. at Vancouver’s

Juneteenth dates back to
1865 when Union soldiers
landed in Galveston, Texas
with news that the Civil War
had ended and that the en-
slaved were now free. Today, Debi Jenkins
it is a cultural celebration of
that freedom and a chance for

stories and food in honor of an-
cestral history.

sweet potato pie contest, fly fish-
ing lessons, Pacific Northwest
craft vendors, and meats from
Foody Blues Texas Style Bar-
beque. The celebration will also
include a free lecture from guest
speaker Debi Jenkins, a Clark
College faculty member and a
current PhD candidate.
Visitors are encouraged to
bring blankets and chairs and
there will be open lawn space
for families to set up. Those
interested in entering the tal-
ent are encouraged to call 503-
893-5864 to sign up.
