Boise's Lam Barbecue

It has been three years since I visited Boise for the Jaialdi celebration, well, check this out:

Boise’s Basques to join for Pete & Freda's Lamb Barbecue

09/10/2008

The event, held outside on the Basque Block in a setting that includes sheep wagons, campfires and outside cooking, will include music, cocktails, raffles and a pelota exhibition in the fronton.

Basques in Boise will join on Friday 12th for Pete & Freda's Family Style Lamb Barbecue, the annual fundraiser of the Cenarrusa Foundation for Basque Culture which honors Pete Cenarrusa, who worked his way from a sheepherder's camp to the statehouse and became Idaho's Secretary of State, and supports the foundation that bears his name.

The event, held outside on the Basque Block in a setting that includes sheep wagons, campfires and outside cooking, will include music, cocktails, raffles and a pelota exhibition in the fronton.

The dinner will also be followed by presentations by the Cenarrusa Foundation grantees.

The Cenarrusa Foundation offers grants in amounts up to $2,000 to Basque clubs and organizations throughout Idaho and eastern Oregon that work to promote the Basque culture and language. The grants are funded from contributions made to the Foundation, as well as from the revenues generated by the Basque license plates that are available for sale through the Idaho Transportation Department.
