We acknowledge our presence on the traditional and contemporary homelands of the Chemakum, S’Klallam, Skokomish, and Snohomish peoples.

We will work with all local tribes to preserve and restore historical truths and ancestral wisdom for future generations.

May we learn from one another’s stories and foster strong relationships with all who share this land.
