you’re taking a non-tribal spouse or partner, you’ll be responsible for paying for

To the editor:
On Tuesday, April 8,2003,1 attended the Elders Circle of Wisdom Gathering
at Chinook Winds Casino. I want to thank Selene Rilatos-Lynch and Valerie
Hibdon for going to the elders’ get-together and helping the elders. They got
us our food, pop, and our dessert. At other tribes’ gatherings, they have young
people who ask if anyone needs help; our tribe does not do this.
1 also want to thank Selene for getting up and singing for us. It is nice that
the younger tribal members have this consideration for their elders.
Thank you for the good food and service, Derek Simmons, Denise Riding
In, and the Chinook Winds staff.
Sincerely,
Victoria Nelson
