Elko Basque Festival Programs
Description
An account of the resource
A collection of the programs for the annual Elko Basque Festival, held annually on the July 4th weekend. The National Elko Basque festival began with a celebration that brought sheepherders and cattle ranchers into town for a day of celebration. The State of Nevada celebrated its centennial in 1964, and the Elko Basque Club decided to organize another grand scale Basque festival to commemorate the event. They invited all of the existing Basque clubs to participate and to send musicians, dancers, and athletes to Elko for the event. Because of the success of the activities, and the geographical centrality of Elko to other Basque communities, Elko assumed the position of the site of the annual National Basque Festival.

Howard Hickson’s Histories
Moon Rock
Northeastern Nevada Museum, Elko – 1970
When NASA released several lunar samples for exhibition around the nation, the
Nevada State Museum in Carson City applied. NASA doesn't ship their moon rocks
so Pete Herlan, Curator of Biology, flew to Washington, D.C. to pick up one for
display.
At that time, the rocks traveled in a black box. Pete was on board, sitting with the case
on his lap. This was more than thirty years before 9/11 but airlines were always alert
for unusual situations. A flight attendant stopped at Pete's seat and asked him what he
had in the box.
Pete replied, "A moon rock."
Flight attendants are usually calm when dealing with difficult passengers. She said,
"Sir, I'm serious. What do you have in the case?"
Pete replied, "I'm serious, too. I have a moon rock."
Thinking she had a real nut case on her hands, the attendant headed for the cockpit
and came back with the flight engineer who asked him the same question.
Pete then explained fully before they decided to throw him off the plane. He opened
the case and pulled out the lunar sample in its sealed container.
�Howard Hickson’s Histories – “Moon Rock: Northeastern Nevada Museum, Elko - 1970”
A year or so later, I applied for one to display at the Northeastern Nevada Museum in
Elko. I contacted NASA and received permission from one of their officials. His
business card was enclosed. On it, with his name, phone number and address was his
title, NLSTESO. Curious, I called him and asked what it meant.
He told me, "National Lunar Sample Traveling Exhibition Scheduling Officer." It
was, most certainly, too long a title for a small business card.
Procedures had changed since Pete's trip. I called all the airlines I traveled on and told
them I would be carrying a lunar sample with me on the return trip. I picked up a large
plastic case that contained the Plexiglas exhibit case, lighting, and labeling. The rock
was in a bright blue case. Printed on the outside was: "Critical Space Material,
NASA." That should have taken care of all potential problems, but it didn't.
Just before takeoff, a flight attendant came by and asked to see the moon rock. She
said she had never seen one. I opened the box and removed the small triangular case. I
held it up so she could get a good look.
She suddenly grabbed it and started up the aisle to show it to everyone on the plane. I
was speechless. One of the provisions of the contract said I had to personally carry it
and not to let it out of my sight. About five nervous minutes later, she brought it back
and thanked me. Big sigh of relief.
We, the rock and I, made it to San Francisco where they told me that they could get
me to Reno but not to Elko. A severe snowstorm was the reason. In Reno, I was
informed that no planes were going east, not even charters.
I had to get the moon rock to the museum by 7:00 p.m. Invitations had been sent for a
lunar sample celebration. After frantically calling around town, I found the only

transportation available was by Greyhound Bus and the next one to Elko was to leave
at 6:00 p.m. Well, the rock wasn't going to make it on time for the party. I called the
museum, thinking the event would be cancelled. It wasn't. Plans had been made,
champagne was ordered, the celebration would go on - without the lunar sample and
without me.
Dead tired by now, I knew I'd fall asleep so I put the case on the bus depot floor and
put both feet on the case. Before I dozed off, a derelict stopped and asked me what I
had in the box. I told him I didn't know, I was just a courier.
Finally, dejected, tired and grinding my teeth, off we went in a snowstorm across
northern Nevada. It was probably the slowest trip the moon rock had ever made.
In Elko, a big party was going on in the museum. Dr. Tom Gallagher, a board
member, with tongue-in-cheek, brought a stone from his house and set it on a display
stand.
When I arrived in Elko in the wee hours of the morning, I took the sample home just
to be on the safe side.
The moon rock took the place of the garden stone the next day. The display materials,
left in San Francisco, didn't arrive for two days. Finally, though, the lunar sample was
installed in its case.
I overheard a small boy say to his mother, "Why doesn't it go beep, beep, beep?"
Another woman, my mother-in-law Ruby, commented, "Looks just like some of the
rocks I have in my backyard." The moon rock exhibited at the museum resembled
very fine grained gray pumice.

�Howard Hickson’s Histories – “Moon Rock: Northeastern Nevada Museum, Elko - 1970”
Several thousand people saw the exhibit during the few weeks it was in the museum
in Elko, a big event for a small community.
All too soon it was time to take the sample back to Washington. Remembering the trip
to escort the moon rock and its exhibit case to the Northeastern Nevada Museum, I
wasn't enthused about taking it back. Dr. Tom and Irene Hood, members of the
museum board of directors, volunteered their daughter, Vickie, to do the chore. Good
choice, she has my eternal gratitude for making the trip - without incident.
