Swanson of Swanson Tax Advisory Group and Raycen Ballard of American Horse Consulting to as sist tribal elders with estate planning. This presentation will give a gen eral idea of what they can assist with - advance directives, living wills, living trusts, investments, and more. If the elder chooses to do so, he/ she will have a one-on-one consulta tion appointment to go over personal needs at no charge to the elder. In or der to utilize this benefit, however, the elder must attend the seminar. Elders are welcome to bring a spouse or other guest with them. There will be three opportunities in August to attend. 10 • Siletz News • Please call Angela or Trish at 541- 444-2532 or 1-800-922-1399 to sign up to attend one of these seminars: Aug. 1 at 3 p.m. at the Hee Hee lllahee RV Resort in Salem Aug. 8 at 3 p.m. at the Portland Area Office Aug. 26 at 11 a.m. at Chinook Winds Casino Resort Even if someone does not own a home or other large items, but have family heirlooms, regalia, jewelry, etc. this is a very important event to at tend!
