Where: Stockton Gurdwara Sahib, 1930 S. Grant St., Stockton, CA 95206
The 100th anniversary of Pacific Coast Khalsa (Free Divine Communion) Society Stockton, California incorporated on 27th May, 1912, concluded on October 14, 2012 with a Sikh Parade in the city of Stockton. The society established the First Sikh Temple of the United States within five months of its incorporation. South Grant Street, on which the religious flag unfurled amid objections from some of the neighboring residents in 1912, has now been changed to Sikh Temple Street. Stockton City Mayor Ann Johnston dedicated it to 100 years of eventful history of the Stockton Sikh Temple.
