On Mother’s Day in Arcata, Calif., the 35 annual Atalanta – It’s a Girl Thing
walk/run took place. The person who hosted this event knows Tina Taylor of
McKinleyville, Calif. The walk/run had never had five generations of one family
participate, so Tina called her Grandmother Agnes Pilgrim. So Agnes went and
participated with her five generations.
In this photo is Agnes Pilgrim; her daughter, Nadine Martin; Tanya Nevarez
and her daughter, Nisha Nevarez; Nisha’s son, Kymarü; Tanya’s sister, Deana
Beacham; Tina Taylor; Tina’s son, Robert Sims Jr.; Tina’s daughter, Kimberly
Edwards; and Kimberly’s two daughters.

Rylan Fisher
Fisher signs to attend Linfield College
Tribal member Rylan Fisher recently announced that he has enrolled and will play
college football for the Linfield Wildcats in McMinnville, Ore.
The Wildcats are a powerhouse NCAA Division III program that is consistently
among the best in the country, with a record 60 consecutive winning seasons. The team
will enter the 2016 season ranked No. 3 in the country.
After being recruited by more than 70 football programs across the country and
offered multiple scholarships to many larger schools, Rylan states “I chose Linfield
because of their strong football family tradition, the way they challenge student/athletes
and most importantly, their academics. Classroom sizes and staying in Oregon was
important to me.”
