Weekly Register miners of by-gone era would “huddle on the flatlands during the winter and then gather for a sow-belly meal in the spring before lumbering up to their claims.  They would stock up on foods that wouldn’t spoil. This tradition is honored by the Annual Sowbelly dinner helping to commemorate the local communities founded by miners.
