Elko, NV, USA. In celebration of Elko, Nevada’s Centennial, the Elko Daily Free Press is running a series of articles featuring “the people who helped make Elko what it is today.” 

The installment of Elko 100 on January 24, 2017, featured Ramon Zugazaga, beloved former president of the Elko Euzkaldunak Basque Club, and former owner of the Biltoki Basque Restaurant, also in Elko.

A few weeks before, Jess Lopategui was also featured in the same series, as you can read here.
