In 1884, Peter Wapato, son of John, obtained the Wapato Point area as part of the Moses Agreement allotment No. 10, and his descendants still retain his interest. L ater, the Point became a gathering place for local Indians, who played the stick game, ran their horses on a half-mile racetrack, and staged rodeos. A grandstand was erected at the racetrack, which was located on the west side of the neck of land leading to Wapato Point itself. Nearby, on this neck, family members operated a dance hall from the late 1920's into the 1940's. T hey also planted fruit trees on the east side of the neck.
Nothing is left standing of the early structures.
In the 1950's and 1960's, the family maintained facilities for camping, swimming, and boating. In March 1911, Congress did diminish the allotments to only 160 acres. D escendents of Peter Wapato still live in the area.
