Wasco County Historical Society invites the public at 11:00 Saturday, July 8th, backyard of the Moody/Rorick House, 300 W. 13th St., The Dalles to hear from DAVID LONG, Shaniko resident, the upgrades currently underway in this city. Free admission, refreshments, lawn chairs welcome.  A tour and history of the 1850 Moody/Rorick House may also be part of the day’s experience.

 

Shaniko, referred to as Cross Hollow in the 1880s, is located on U.S. Route 97, 20 miles SE of Maupin in Wasco County.  Incorporated in 1901, its illustrious history included being the regional center of 20,000 square miles of sheep, cattle and wheat production, being Wasco County’s fifth largest city, shipping out over 2000 T. of wool in 1903 which earned its title of “Wool Capital of the World”.  Its population in 1910 was thought to be 600; today’s cited as being in the 30s.  Railroads played an important role in this history.

 

In 1959, the Oregon Centennial Commission, awarded Shaniko the title of “Oregon’s Ghost Town of the Year”.  In 1979, its hotel was placed on the National Register of Historic Places.  In 1982, Shaniko was designated as a Historic District.

 

The Shaniko Hotel, with plans to reopen this summer, is surrounded with reminders from its past.  Visitors can see the 1900 water tower, 1901 school, the city hall and jail, the post post office, the wool barn, the wedding chapel, etc.  Seasonally, we can also access the Ice Cream Shop, antique and gift stores, and perhaps more. As a reminder, be mindful of private residences.
