Posted by: Kim_Hamilton on 09/01/2008 03:10 PM
White Pines, CA...The Grounds of the Sierra Nevada Logging Museum were filled again this year for the 13th Annual Sierra Nevada Logging Jamboree. The Museum Board and organizers did another wonderful job planning and hosting the event. Top Logger of The Year honors went to George Harrison Jr. of Grass Valley. For his efforts over two days of competitions he received a beautiful Chrome Throwing Axe. They had Axe Throwing, Cross Cut Sawing, Chain Saw Cutting, Museum Tours and more. It is a fun day for the entire family. Smokey Bear stopped by to visit with the kids and warn them about fire danger. Saturday Night the grounds were filled with the Music of Joni Morris. The Sierra Nevada Logging Museum really is a world class museum that is continuously expanding it's scope. They are hard at work on a Tuolumne County Logging History Section and of course when they have their Shay Locomotive is finished you will be able to take rides back in time and also into the woods on the proposed track. So mark you calendars and make plans for next years Jamboree and make sure you stop by the museum as well. We have lots of video and photos for you to take a gander at....
