Center restrooms vandalized Vandals expended considerable energy removing the upper rail from the cyclone fence around the Papoose Field at the Community Center and using it to punch a hole in a wall and destroy a steel door. Damage to the restrooms at the ballfield is estimated "between $ 1 ,500 and $2,000." says Utilities Depart ment manager Herb Graybael. Conc rete blocks will have to be replaced, one steel door repaired and another replaced, along with the rail on the cyclone fence replaced. "What's sad about this," says Utilities groundskeeper Jasond Luey, "is the energy expended." Vandals had to go to much effort to cause this destruction. The Tribe spends thousands of dollars annually to repair com munity property destroyed by van dals. Luey reviewed some of the vandalism that has occured includ ing removing signs, spraying cars and buildings with paint, damag ing Longhouse restrooms and tri bal houses, breaking windshields, cutting fences, pulling up trees and making community areas unsightly. li v.. --- ' sr.

The blessing and prayer service was held November 2 with tribal elders Nettie Shawaway, Matilda Mitchell and Sylvia Wal lulatum conducting the services. The Tribe, through the Employ ment Assistance Pre-Employment office, has been looking for innov ative projects which will help tribal members learn basic skills in small business and marketing. The thrift shop is one way to accomplish this, as it is a "step toward offering entrepreneuring, a part of the miss ing link," said Marcia Soliz, direc tor of employment and training services : The monies generated from the thrift shop and other projects will be used for training for pre employment work program partic ipants and for new projects. The thriftshop is an example of what can be done to help develop and establish training sites for on-the-job experience. It could continue as a training site or eventually could be turned over to a tribal member in training. This effort also fulfills a need for the community. In September, 1989, the project was activated, with space secured, equipment ordered, participants selected, training started on inven tory, cash register operation and handling money.
