The Band

Temecula Band of Luiseño Mission Indians, Pechanga Reservation - Riverside County - CA

Established in 1882
Located in Southern Riverside County near the City of Temecula
Total area: 5,500 acres
Population: @ 467 plus @ 305 living outside the reservation (they are in the process of disenrolling some members)
Tribal Chairman: Mark Macarro (2005-)

Enriched fabulously by the income from the casino operation and an impressive resort, they try to diversify their economy and to appear as a good citizens by financing many community projects in the neighboring areas and supporting other, non-gaming, Indian nations in the State.

The Flag

A white flag bearing the tribe logo in the center. They use two flags, but the other one (although handsome) is of purely commercial nature.
