Soboba Celebrates

On June 19, 1883 the United States government, by Executive Order, established what is now the Soboba Reservation. For the past 127 years, the Tribe and its members have worked hard to build a strong Soboba Community. With the addition of gaming rights, Soboba was able to build a casino and accelerate improvements in the community. The Casino has 800 employees and is a major source of income for the tribe.

In 2008, a new Tribal Administration building was constructed. There are 350 employees who work for the Tribal programs and operations. The Tribe operates many programs and services for its members.

For the past 20 years, the Soboba Reservation has been home to the Noli Indian School, which serves grades 6 through 12. It operates by a federal grant and was recently re-accredited by WASC (Western Association of Schools and Colleges). The Soboba Sports Complex, located near the school, is a great resource for Noli athletes to practice and compete.

The Soboba Tribal Preschool accepts tribal affiliated students starting at 3 and 4 years of age.

Through the Soboba Parks and Recreation Department, the community has access to the Soboba Sports Complex year round for activities, recreation and sports. The center is used when the Soboba community hosts the NIAA (National Indian Athletics Association) Softball Tournaments. The Oaks Retreat, which has several sports fields and facilities that can be used for conferences and sports activities, is another facility that is reserved for annual events.

Since 2009, The Country Club at Soboba Springs has been a popular stop on the PGA Tour’s Nationwide Tour and the Soboba Golf Classic. The clubhouse has banquet rooms as well as the Maze Stone restaurant, all of which are frequently used by community groups for annual galas and awards events.
