Kathleen is not only an asset to the community but also a great human being who gives her time and efforts unselfishly to others and received the 2010 Margaret Dalton Golden Nugget Award. This prestigious award is given to Amador County's unsung heroes, an inspiration of the late Margaret Dalton, Jackson Rancheria's Tribal Chairperson for over 25 years.
