Jackson Rancheria's sponsorship also will support programs and services of the Sacramento Gay & Lesbian Center (saccenter.org), which produces and is the beneficiary of Sacramento Pride. “Native Americans have always believed in openness and acceptance. For 25 years Jackson Rancheria has enjoyed and supported the endless diversity of our community,” said Rich Hoffman, CEO of Jackson Rancheria. “We are proud to be a Title Sponsor of the Sacramento Gay & Lesbian Center and Sacramento Pride and look forward to our involvement in the publications, events, and activities of the Center, Rancheria Style.” “We're thrilled to welcome Jackson Rancheria as a partner with the Center and Sacramento Pride and as a major supporter of the LGBT community,” said Bill Otton, interim executive director of the Sacramento Gay & Lesbian Center. "As one of very few providers of services for LGBT people in a nine-county region, the Center depends on the support of corporations and individuals to provide critically important services. It's gratifying to receive this level of support from such a significant regional employer and community-minded organization as Jackson Rancheria.” In addition to Jackson Rancheria, major sponsors for Sacramento Pride and the Center include The Hewlett Packard Company, Wells Fargo, Barefoot Cellars, Safeway, Amtrak, Markstein Beverage Co., Outword Magazine, Rainbow Chamber of Commerce of Sacramento, Uptown Studios, Rainbow Pages, CARES and Lumens Lighting. Outword Magazine publisher Fred Palmer serves as sales and marketing representative for Sacramento Pride. Jackson Rancheria is owned and operated by the Jackson Rancheria Band of Mi-Wuk Indians. The property includes a hotel, Northern California’s highest-rated RV park, five restaurants offering a range of cuisine, parking structures, general store, gas station and the first LEED-certified building in Amador County.
