Dear Community Member:

th
The 6 Annual "Hart of the West" celebration is going to be spectacular and I thank you for your
attendance. As a sponsored Los Angeles County Parks and Recreation program, this event draws
hundreds of people each year who are interested in the Pow Wow, native Indian legacy, booths,
museum and entertainment.

Also, as a recognized event of the 150 year old celebration of California's "Sesquicentennial"
you will enjoy some of the history and culture of our Native Americans, Civil War and Mountain
Men dances and re-enactments.

We are proud of William S. Hart who was a pioneer visionary and great movie legend who
donated his home to the people of Los Angeles County (regardless of race or creed) for their
enjoyment, 41 years ago. I hope you will visit the Hart Mansion, at the top of the hill, if you
haven't already done so.

Many groups of volunteers and employees of the Los Angeles County Department of Parks and
Recreation have combined their talents and expertise to make this year's event an outstanding
one.

Thank you for joining us and I personally hope you will have an enjoyable time at the Wm. S.
th
Hart Park's 6 Annual Pow Wow.
