Everybody around these parts knows Chautauqua and has probably spent a fair bit of time hiking in the park and seeing concerts, films and lectures at the auditorium... but do you know why it's called Chautauqua and what the word means? In honor of Chautauqua's 125th year, we delved into its history to give you some insight into its founding and the inspiration/movement behind it. Find the explanation for its name in the article (or just wait for a history-loving local to answer in the comments)!
