The Cultural Resource Department at the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians Reservation near San Jacinto opened its Fall Cultural Program Series with arrowhead-making classes during September.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Soboba Aquatics Center at San Jacinto High School featured a crowd of excited students, staff and community members. Not just because the $6.5 million project was unveiled on August 30 but because a fundraiser was held to determine who would take the first jump into the pool.

The Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians established the Soboba Foundation to offer philanthropic support to other nonprofits that benefit such things as education, health matters and youth sports.

Soboba Elders started playing chair volleyball about a year ago and attend tournaments at other reservations on a regular basis. Weekly practices find about 15 players from two teams spending a couple of hours at the Soboba Sports Complex.

With help from the Soboba Foundation, the 2019 Tribute Mania Concert Series will enjoy a third season run from September through December. As a Presenting Sponsor, the philanthropic arm of the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians will help bring some talented tribute bands to the theater at 216 E. Florida Ave. in Hemet.
