43rd Annual Basque Festival will kick off second weekend in June

The tradition of hard working people coming together to celebrate and share their culture is the crux of the Winnemucca Basque Festival, according to Paige Brooks, this year’s 43rd Annual Winnemucca Basque Festival Grand Marshal. “I think we all have a sense of pride and a sense of hard work about our heritage and this is the one time of year we’ll come together and put our scarves on,” said Brooks.
