Back to School BBQ on Thursday Dave McMechan/Spilyay The construction phase of the Plateau Travel Plaza is about half way complete.

She also presented another cost- saving idea for the tribes, involv- ing the 5 percent employer discre- tionary 401(k) Plan contributions. Each year Tribal Council ap- proves these discretionary contri- butions. They are contributions on behalf of all eligible employees, whether or not an employee chooses to make his or her own contribution to the plan. Employees are eligible if he or she has worked 1,000 hours for the tribes, or if the person is al- ready 62 years old. “The amount of the discretion- ary contributions is determined by Tribal Council, and may change from time to time,” according to the summary of the tribes’ 401(k) Plan. The contribution amount has been at 5 percent for several years. Making these contributions is good when the budget conditions are right, Ms. Stacona said. But in the present budget situation, she said, Tribal Council may want to consider a one-year change to the contributions amount. She presented three alterna- tives: maintaining the 5 percent, reducing to 2.5 percent, and sus- pending the contribution for the year. Tribal branches, departments and enterprises will begin their 2018 budget presentations the week of September 5-8. Council will then have a proposal by the end of Sep- tember, and the district meetings will be in October. Budget presentations CPE funding plan set for October Tribal Council in July proposed a supplemental budget that would fund the Cannabis Project Enter- prise. The idea is to invest some of the carbon sequestration revenue into the construction of the CPE greenhouse. The General Council meeting on the proposal, involving the creation of the Warm Springs Financial Strategies LLC, also hap- pened in late July. Council has not yet adopted a resolution regarding the supplemen- tal budget, as the carbon sequestra- tion revenue has not yet arrived. The revenue can be expected in October, and Council wants to wait until the money is in-hand before adopting the resolution. The sole purpose of the Finan- cial Strategies LLC is to provide fi- nancing for membership-approved capital improvement and economic development projects. The CPE funding proposal involves $3 mil- lion of the carbon sequestration revenue. Carbon sequestration should net more than $10 million over a term of years, Warm Springs Ventures estimates.

n all-Native Americanfilm team won two of thetop awards at the recent Port-land 48 Hour Film Project.

The short film Missing In-digenous won Best Film andBest Cinematography in thePortland 48 Hour FilmProject

Film producer is IsaacTrimble, and the director isLaRonn Katchia. Cast andcrew are known as TeamRedFawn, bringing authenticNative American and Indig-enous issues to the forefrontof mainstream cinema.

Abou t Mi s s i n g I nd i g -enous:

Set in a rural reservationtown, the story begins as twodetectives—played bySolomon Trimble (Sam Uleyof Twi l i g h t ), and IsaacTrimble—investigate the ho-micide of a young womanmarked with a killer’s deadlysignature.

With the assistance of en-tomologist Brett Rivers,played by actor DavidVelarde, the detectives soonrealize Brett may have a leadon this murderer’s lethaltrademark.

Taking them on a myste-rious journey through thedense forests of the reser-vation, the detectives aresoon on the trail of an elu-sive, faceless killer.

What unfolds is a heartwrenching story of a silentepidemic, the disappearanceof Native American and In-digenous women.

You can see the director’scut at the website:drive.google.com/file/d/0 B x r O 3 - I -X9SqYVdQZGdFcUw1akk/view?usp=sharin

The back storyNative American

women are murdered atmore than 10 times the na-tional average. The truenumber of these missing in-digenous women is un-known.

While many of thesecases go unsolved, and areforgotten or ignored byAmerican governments,these women are more thanjust statistics: they aremothers, sisters, grand-mothers, aunties and daugh-ters.

Missing Indigenous cap-tures the emotion that con-tinues to burden the fami-

lies and communities af-fected by the loss of thesewomen.

Bringing an all Nativecast and crew together wasparamount in making theemotional connections inrepresenting the authentic-ity of Native Americanpeople, LaRonn Katchiasaid.

As Missing Indigenousgains exposure throughoutthe industry, he said, teamRedFawn remainshumbled by authenticallyand accurately representingNative American lives,communities, and realitiesthrough film.

As the team prepares forFilmapalooza, held in Paris,France in March 2018, theyplan to enter Missing Indig-enous into other film compe-titions and festivals.

They invite you to sharein and experience this re-markable and ground-break-ing achievement. Theirgofundme account is at:

48 Film ProjectTeam RedFawn describes

the recent festival:The 48 Hour Film Project

is a wild and sleepless week-end in which a team makes amovie—write, shoot andedit—in just 48 hours.

On Friday night, teamsdraw a genre from a hat.They are then given a char-acter, prop and line to includein their films.

On Sunday night, in a wilddash to the drop off event,the film is turned in—andteams celebrate. The film isthen screened at a local the-ater in front of an audienceof filmmakers, friends andfamilies.

The 48HFP is the world’soldest and largest timed film-making competition. The48HFP is all about creativityand fun. It’s also about com-munity.

For years the 48HFP hasbeen helping local creativepeople connect to makefilms. These connections gobeyond filmmaking—takingpart in the 48 helps peoplefind friends, collaboratorsand jobs. There are evensome couples, including mar-ried couples, who metthrough the 48.

Native crew wins film awardA

he Native film NeitherWolf nor Dog will openat Madras Cinema 5 thisFriday, September 1.

The film stars Lakotaelder Dave Bald Eagle,who passed away last yearat 97.

A priority for film-maker Steven LewisSimpson has been tomake the movie availableas close as possible to Na-tive communities.

Three of the first sixtheatres where the filmpremiered are owned bytribes.

On some occasionsentire schools on reserva-tions have gone to see thefilm in theatres. The filmis excellent for youth, el-ders and all others.

Steven Lewis givessome insight into what toexpect with Neither Wolfnor Dog:

During the films cli-max, the character Dan,played by Dave BaldEagle, takes us into theheart of Wounded Knee.

Mr. Bald Eagle’s fam-ily connection to the mas-sacre was even deeperthan that of the charac-ter he played.

“The film is fiction butthe script was thrown

away at this point,” Mr.Simpson said.

“Dave then deliversthe most powerful ofimprovised scenes. Atthe end of filming thisscene, he said he hadbeen holding in thosewords for 95 years.”

Nei t h e r Wo l f n o rDog , based on the bookby Kent Nerburn, is atribute to the amazinglegacy of Dave BaldEagle.

Film critic Colin Co-vert says, “By the timethe end credits arrive, thecharacters of this mod-est, crowd-funded fea-ture are practically un-forgettable. It’s im-mensely serious but nodowner.”

Besides Dave BaldEagle the cast includesChristopher Sweeney(The Veil, Chasing Mav-e r i ck s ), Richard RayWhitman (Barking Wa-ter, Drunktown’s Finest),Roseanne Supernault(Maina , B l a ck s t on e ),Tatanka Means (Tige rEye s, In t o The Wes t ,Saints and Strangers),Zahn McClarnon (FargoTV Series, Mekko, RedRoad , Lon gm i r e , Th eSon).

For the Years of Service

anice Clements hasbeen a tribal communityhealth advocate for manyyears. She has broughtdedication and valuableexperience to the tribalHealth and Welfare Com-mittee, addressing withcare the matters at hand.

Her contribution totribal community healthwas recognized recentlywith an Award for Excel-lence for Years of Ser-vice, given by the IHSPortland Area Office ofDirect Service and Con-tracting. Janice acceptedthe award last week atTribal Council, as pre-sented by CouncilwomanVal Switzler.

Janice has worked forthe tribes in the healthfield longer than most

anyone. She recalled howyears ago, as she was gettingstarted in the field, a prior-ity in tribal health was dia-betes.

At the time, she said, itwas a little understood dis-ease on the reservation.She studied its causes andeffects, “it was a learningprocess,” Janice said.

The tribes then receiveda diabetes grant, a pilotproject, the first of its kindin Indian Country. And to-day the tribes and IHS haveamong the best diabetes pre-vention and treatment pro-grams. Maintaining fundingfor this is essential to thecommunity, Janice says.

On a family level, shesaid, it’s especially importantfor members to be testedregularly for diabetes. The

consequences of the dis-ease are many, from kid-ney and heart problems,to high blood pressure,to name just some ofailments.

You can see the ex-tent of diabetes in In-dian Country—and theeffort to address theproblem—by the num-ber of residents who areon dialysis, Janice said.

When presented withthe Award for Excel-lence, she thanked thePortland Area IHS andthe Tribal Council.

“I never expectedthis,” she said. Of heryears on the Health andWelfare Committee,“I’ve learned as muchI could, and alwaystried to do my best.”

Summary of Tribal Council

During eclipseKudos to the community

members, and a pat on theback to those who workedthrough the solar eclipseweekend.

I am feeling very gratefulfor the Warm Springs com-munity, as things seemed togo very well through the So-lar Eclipse weekend from theview of the Museum atWarm Springs.

We were open Saturday,Sunday and Monday withthe local vendors, arts andcrafts demonstrators, pow-wow dancing, playing theguitar, all at the museum.

We enjoyed a fairly goodamount of visitors throughthe weekend. Some peoplewere from other countries,other states that camethrough the museum. It wasall good, very enjoyable forall.

It was great that adminis-tration pulled together tomake available campingspaces, parking space for thesolar eclipse viewers. Greatto see the local people direct-ing traffic, very helpful as wedidn’t have to sit and wait fora long time just to get acrossthe street or to get on High-way 26.

Just want to thank all thevendors who came here, notonly to the museum but tothe campus area to providesome of our culture, danc-ing, and good food to eat.Great huckleberry pies andfry bread.

I compliment all the tal-ented people who sharedtheir native talent in beading,weaving and art work. Youtook the time to share with

the community and with visi-tors. Thank you all for com-ing together. Thank you all.Thank you who worked, putin a lot of time to make thisplace more organized, more

enjoyable. Was great to wit-ness the solar eclipse andtribal members top it offwith the war hoops! It was agood weekend in the com-munity.

In Warm Springs last week, Iljitsch van Beijnum, from TheHague, Netherlands, captured this eclipse photo, showingthe solar Diamond Ring Effect. The effect is caused bybeams of sunlight shining through a deep canyon on themoon.

One of the best places to viewthe eclipse was at the WarmSprings Academy, where ateam of scientists was onhand from the NorthwesternEarth and Sciences Pipeline,a NASA-funded project youthscience project. Thescientists and studentslaunched high-altitudeballoons just before theeclipse. The science teambrought a mobile planetarium,robotics equipment for ayouth robotics competition,and several high-poweredtelescopes and cameras forviewing the night sky and theeclipse.

To the Warm Springs Community:My family and I were fortunate

to be on the reservation for therecent solar eclipse, which was anamazing experience. But it wasn’tjust the sky show that touchedme—it was the ground I was onand the people around me.

To see the old familiar landscapedarkened by the moon’s shadow,to hear people cheering down atthe Academy (which was only adream when I lived on the rez), tofeel the warm embrace of ourhosts and the community… it’ssomething I’ll never forget.

My adopted home was the per-fect place to watch this beautifulcelestial event!

In 1979, I shared anothereclipse with Warm Springs—alow-key, local affair, nothing likethis year’s Internet-driven phenom-enon. But 38 years later, the tribeswere clearly ready for the hordes!

A lot of people worked incred-ibly hard to pull off the eclipseweekend, and every flagger, shop-keeper or craftsperson we talkedto was gracious and welcoming.

Most meaningful for me,though, were the spontaneous per-sonal connections made during mytwo days in Warm Springs. I feltlike I was beginning to complete acircle as I introduced my grownson to folks who were such a bigpart of my life before he was born.

You all remain very importantto me, and I plan to come backfor more visits and hugs when thesun and the moon and the wild-fires aren’t keeping everyone sobusy!

Tribal Council approved thisseason’s off-reservation huntingregulations, as recommended bythe Branch of Natural Resources.

Please come by the Natural Re-sources office to pick up your off-reservation tags, guidelines andregulations packet.

Updated hunting information isalso available on the fishing andhunting hotline at 541-553-2000.

Please take advantage of off-reservation ceded land huntingtags. These opportunities reducehunting pressure on the reserva-tion, which may help improve wild-life populations.

Please make sure off-reserva-tion hunting takes place on public(unclaimed) lands. It is the hunt-ers’ responsibility to know wherethey are hunting, where they areallowed to hunt, what weaponsthey are allowed to use and whatthe bag limit is. For questions re-garding hunting, please contact theNatural Resources Department at541-553-2001.

Each tribal hunter may possesstwo tags for each hunt at a time,and may be issued additional tagsonly after previously issued tags arefilled and reported.

Off-reservation hunting is des-ignated for public (unclaimed)lands. Illegally harvesting wildlifeon the reservation using ceded landtags or harvesting the wrong sexcan have great long-term negativeimpacts to the tribes’ wildlife popu-lations.

Overharvesting wildlife and il-legally harvesting females reduceswildlife population numbers formultiple generations. Please helpprotect the tribes’ wildlife resourcesby reporting poaching violations to541-553-2033 or 541-553-1171.

There is mandatory reportingof all hunter harvest.

Failure to report harvest resultsfor off-reservation ceded land andreservation hunts will result in aloss of hunting privileges for sub-sequent tags.

Please be honest with yourhunter reporting. If you are issueda tag, you have the right to huntand harvest an animal. Harvestand hunting information is impor-tant for the wildlife department indetermining wildlife populationsizes, herd compositions and hunt-ing pressure.

This information also helps usdetermine where there are and arenot animals, which helps focus ourhabitat restoration efforts on thereservation.

Your continued support andparticipation with hunter reporting

are greatly appreciated. Thank youfor your participation!

The first significant commercialfall fishing season opened earlierthis month. The public can pur-chase salmon from Indian fishersalong the Columbia River. Othercommon sale locations include:

Marine Park at Cascade Locks,North Bonneville (one mile east ofBonneville Dam on the Washing-ton shore), Koberg (east of HoodRiver), and Celilo Village.

Closely monitored throughoutthe season, the Columbia River falltribal fishery is adjusted as the runprogresses to ensure that the fish-ery remains within the harvest lim-its.

The limits were established un-der the U.S. v. Oregon fisheries man-agement agreement. The agreementaims to protect, rebuild, and en-hance upper Columbia River fishruns.

Indian and non-Indian harvestguidelines outlined in the manage-ment agreement help to ensuresustainability of the resource.

“The tribes played a major rolein rebuilding fall chinook toharvestable populations and arenow putting these salmon on themarket through a carefully man-aged and sustainable fishery,” said

Tribes open fall commercial fall fishery season at ColumbiaJaime A. Pinkham, executive di-rector of the Columbia River In-ter-Tribal Fish Commission.

“Our commitment to thesalmon has made the tribes lead-ers in regional salmon recoveryefforts and we are dedicated touse the best available science inthe management of all our fish-eries practices.”

The tribal fishery is protectedunder treaties with the federal gov-ernment signed in 1855, when theWarm Springs, Yakama, Umatilla,and Nez Perce tribes reservedtheir rights to ceremonial, subsis-tence and commercial fishing atall usual and accustomed fishingplaces in the Columbia river ba-sin.

“Salmon is fundamental to theculture and identity of all thetribes in this region, and haveplayed a significant role in the re-gional economy for thousands ofyears,” said Pinkham.

“By enjoying sustainably har-vested Indian-caught salmon, ev-eryone has the chance to be a partof this ancient tradition.”

hen Inez Bill’s father died 15years ago, she wanted to gatherhuckleberries for his funeral, so sheheaded up to Mount Hood.

“It was devastating,” Inez re-members. “I would probably needat least 12 gallons for my father’smemorial. There was not enough.We didn’t even pick a gallon ofberries.”

Inez is a member of the Tulaliptribe. Traditionally, the tribal mem-bers ate huckleberries—at homeand in ceremonies—brewed teafrom the leaves, and used the juiceto dye their clothes.

Huckleberries were abundantthanks to forest fires, which openedup wetlands and meadows andmade space for short, shrubbyplants that need the sun—plantslike huckleberry bushes.

But for decades the Forest Ser-vice has tried to put out fires asfast as possible. So there isn’tmuch huckleberry habitat left.

That’s why the Tulalip Tribe, likeConfederated Tribes of WarmSprings, is working with the ForestService to recreate open patchesin the forest.

Cathy Whitlock, a professor atMontana State University, looks attree rings and lake sediments tostudy the history of fire. She saysfire records don’t track the climatein the wet forests of western Wash-ington and Oregon, which meanspeople were setting forest fires.

“People were using fire forfood-gathering and improving theberry-collecting,” says Whitlock, thedirector of the Institute on Eco-systems at Montana State. “Theywere using it to improve travel, for

hunting.”What the Tulalip are doing to-

day is a little different:It’s a hot, dry August morning,

and a group of teens is gatheredon the slope of a mountain not farfrom the Skykomish River. They’rewearing sunglasses and gardeninggloves and grazing on huckleber-ries while they await instruction.

The Tulalip Tribe is working withthe Forest Service to maintain apatch of huckleberries in the Mt.Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest.

“We had a forester comethrough with a chainsaw and cut abunch of the saplings here,” HollyZox tells the teenagers. She’s a bota-nist, ecologist and contractor for theTulalip Tribe.

The teenagers’ job is going to beto pull those dried-out saplings

down the hillside: “What we’re go-ing to do is go up, form a fireline,and pass it all down so that wecan pile it up and free those huck-leberries,” Zox tells the kids.

The land the teens are tryingto clear is federal land; it’s part ofthe Mount Baker-Snoqualmie Na-tional Forest.

Today’s brush-clearing is partof an agreement between the For-est Service and the Tulalip Tribesigned five years ago. The agree-ment is based on the 1855 Treatyof Point Elliott, which reservesthe Tulalip’s right to hunt andgather in unclaimed lands.

“The tribes see their treaty rightas more than just the ability togather,” says Libby Nelson, whohelped negotiate the agreement.The tribe’s members also, she says,

“want to be part of the steward-ship as they had been for thou-sands of years.”

The agreement allows the tribeto keep some clear-cut Forest Ser-vice land open for huckleberryhabitat. “Logging is kind of do-ing what prescribed burns and tra-ditional burning used to do to keepcertain areas open and from hav-ing the conifers overtake these ear-lier forest stages and meadows,”she explains.

Controlled burns are still on thetable for the future—but for now,the tribe is focusing on clearing theland with chainsaws—and teenag-ers. This isn’t just a chance forthe kids to get involved in main-taining land for huckleberry habi-tat. It’s also an opportunity forthem to taste the berries—oftenfor the first time.

“I thought it was just a regularold blueberry and then I tasted it,”says 14-year-old Martel Richwine,a member of the Tulalip Tribe.

“I was like, ‘Wow, this is moredelicious than a blueberry.’ It hadthat little pop kind of like thoselittle boba balls. It just has that littlepop of that nice, sweet juice thatyou have.”

Now that the Tulalip can accessthis huckleberry grove, tribal elderInez Bill says she has all the huck-leberries she needs. Today, she anda coworker are brewing huckle-berry tea.

“Knowing that we have an areathat we can go into and to planfor future generations to have thisarea set aside for our use,” Bill says,that’s really what the Treaty ofPoint Elliott was all about.

The Lummi Nation declared astate of emergency on Thursdayafter thousands of farmed salmonspilled into tribal treaty waters inWashington.

Tribal fishermen are trying tocatch as many of the Atlanticsalmon as possible. The goal is toprotect native fish species frombeing eaten or exposed to dis-eases, Chairman Timothy BallewII said.

“The tribe has not received con-firmation that the Atlantic salmonspill has been contained, so we haveto assume that the invasive fishcontinues to spill into these waters,putting the spawning grounds fornative salmon species at risk,”Ballew said.

The fish came from a fish farmoperated by Cooke Aquaculture inthe Deepwater Bay off of CypressIsland. In a statement last week, thecompany said “several thousandAtlantic salmon” escaped fromholding pens, but a spokespersonsubsequently said that the figuremay be far higher.

The state is also encouragingpeople to catch as many of the fishas possible. As the name implies, thefarmed Atlantic salmon are notnative to the Pacific Ocean.

“The Atlantic salmon bring withthem pollution, virus and parasiteamplification, and all that harmsPacific salmon and our waters ofWashington,” said Kurt Beardslee,the director of the Wild Fish Con-servancy Northwest.

The Warm Springs Acad-emy is now using a web ap-plication called PickUp Pa-trol. The application makesit easier for parents to makechanges to the students’regular after-school dismissalplans.

Previously, parents mayhave written a note or madea phone call to the office tolet staff know about dis-missal plan changes.

For example, the studentmay be getting picked up in-

stead of taking the bus; or thestudent may be staying afterfor an activity.

Now, the parent can sim-ply sign into PickUp Patrolfrom a smartphone or com-puter and submit the changesthere.

The Academy is suggest-ing all plan changes now besubmitted through PickUpPatrol.

PickUp Patrol is Conve-nient: You can make changesdays, weeks, or even months

New web system for Academy parentsin advance.

Automated: Reduces class-room interruptions and helpsthe school to better track whois going where.

Safe and Secure: You willreceive a confirmation e-maileach time you submit a planchange for your child.

The school has a flyer andother information on the newsystem. If you have any ques-tions, contact the Academy [email protected]

Or call 541-553-1128.
