Please come to hear about, and get involved in, the next chapter of our 2016-2021 Strategic Plan rollout.

We have results to celebrate also, so come hear about the tremendous progress we’ve made toward accomplishing our Areas of Focus for 2015-16.

The Maiden of Deception Pass: Guardian of Her Samish People, PUB 9208
Tues., May 17: 10:30-11:30 a.m.
Movie and discussion with writer and Longhouse media’s Tracy Rector!

Long ago a maiden named Ko-kwahl-alwoot risked her life to save the Samish people from starvation. She did so by agreeing to marry a man of the sea, who threatened to take the plentiful sea life away from the area if she did not. Her reluctant father demanded that Ko-kwahl-alwoot return annually. But, after about four years of visits, it became increasingly difficult for her to return to the village. And so, today, Ko-kwahl-alwoot lives eternally underwater. The documentary tells her story and how tribal history inspires generations of Samish people.
