The Fun Was With Me At FOREST MOON FESTIVAL 2024!

On the last weekend of May, Humboldt and Del Norte Counties got their lightsabers, Leia buns, and Baby Yoda ears out for the Forest Moon Festival! In its 2nd year running, this festival was all about celebrating the history between our Redwoods and the Endor scenes from the finale of the OG Star Wars trilogy, Return of the Jedi, and getting to show off some geekiness here and there too!

Redwood Voice’s Monique Camarena was on the ground to see what was going on at this Endor-inspired event, and find out why this movie makes Crescent City feel a little more special!

From the office of True North to the Howland Hill Outdoor School and back to the Cultural Center, a team of California Endowment senior program managers met with numerous members of our community. After a tourism and economic development collaboration and a day of viewing the county they’ve never seen, what does this gathering of minds have in store for Del Norte?
