What was happening at Rancho Chico in the early 1850s? Who was here and what were they doing?

Find out when I interview Major John Bidwell at the Chico Museum on Saturday, May 14th. Enjoy the program at 10 a.m. and then stay to enjoy “Chico through Time,” an outstanding display all about Chico history. Your $5 admission gets you the program and museum entry.

John Bidwell is portrayed by Nick Anderson. I always enjoy working with Nick. Last month we went to Orland and talked to some 4th grade classes. This month we face a tougher audience — people who actually know something about Chico history!
