Frey to compete at mountain biking world championships in China Siletz Tribal member and professional athlete Fairlee Frey of Boise, Idaho, is headed to the World Championships for Cross Country Eliminator Mountain Bik- ing in Chengdu, China, in November. Frey qualified to represent the United States in this global event at an Interna- tional UCI World Cup race hosted earlier this summer in Columbus, Ga. Her podium finish alongside Nor- wegian national champion Ingrid Boe Jacobsen and Swedish national champion Ella Holmegaard bolstered Frey’s overall world ranking to seventh, making her the highest ranked XC Eliminator rider in the United States for the 2018 season. Cross Country Eliminator (XCE) is a vibrant and exciting format of mountain bike racing that showcases the skills of elite riders in an urban setting. Participants begin the day with a single lap time trial of an obstacle-filled course. Riders are then placed into heats based on their qualifying times. The fast- est riders from each heat advance to the semi-finals and then finals. Frey enjoys the XCE format of “... all- out sprinting with other riders while navi- gating large and challenging obstacles.” When she isn’t racing or training, Frey works as a full-time registered nurse at St. Luke’s Medical System.

Chinook Winds Golf Resort opened in 2005 when the Tribe purchased the former Lakeside Golf and Fitness Center in Lincoln City. The combination of Tribal employees and those at Chinook Winds Casino Resort has made the Siletz Tribe the largest employer in Lincoln County. The Siletz Tribe has honored its tradition of sharing within the community by dis- tributing more than $15.9 million through the Siletz Tribal Charitable Contribution Fund and other Tribal resources. Chinook Winds has donated more than $2.8 million in cash and fundraising items since 1995. It also provides in-kind donations of convention space for various fundrais- ers as well as technical support, advertising and manpower for events.
