The Tribal Planning Department held a series of four community meet ings to get ideas from tribal members regarding what programs, facilities or services should be explored for grant opportunities. But it’s not too late to send them your ideas. “Send us your ideas in the mail." urged Naomi Shadwick, grant writer on the Planning staff. “Many people may not have been able to attend the meetings and we don't want to miss out on someone’s great ideas,’’ she said. Written comments can be sent to: CTSI Planning Department, P.O. Box 549, Siletz, OR 97380-0549.
