tribal member they can recruit for
any job that's open at the resort.

and a new employee must hold their
job for no less than ninety days. Don't
hesitate! Kah-Nee-Ta has many job

Proposed Rood Ripping
As part of Natural Resource's continuing program of reclaiming land
taken up by unneeded roads. Forestry plans to eradicate roads in the Badger
Cedar Timber Sale Area. The reclamation actions would convert compacted
bare soil into vegetation covered land where natural processes can resume.
The 1992 Integrated Resource Management Plan has provided guidelines
for road density in the forested area. Section TXDC3S states: "Within the
commercial forest, average road densities will not exceed 4 J miles per
section." Those roads identified for eradication will be blocked and ripped
with a specially designed plow. The ripped roads will then be seeded with
grass by crews from the BIA Branch of Land Operations.
Any Tribal member with comments or concerns about this road ripping
project should contact Doug Dunlap at the Forestry office, 553-2416, by
June 24, 1994.
Each year the Tribal Education
department sends about 80 students
off to technical schools and colleges
throughout Oregon and the
Northwest. Formostof these students
the experience can be very difficult.
New surroundings, unfamiliar faces,
and a rigorous academic schedule
can make college life seem
overwhelming at times.
Unfortunately many students come
home with poor grades and feeling
that they were not really prepared for
the college experience.
To help these students the
Education branch sponsors intensive
full time summer program called the
"Summer Bridge . It helps students
bridge the gap between reservation
life and college life. Three classes
will be provided that will total 10
college credits. They are College
English, Reading and Math, along
with Computer Training. Each course
will be taught by college certified
instructors. Classes will meet daily
from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. Study labs
will also be provided. The classes
will begin on June 20 and run through
August 12.
Summer Bridge is geared for
seniors who have just graduated and
other students who are going off to
college for the first time. The classes
will prepare them for any college
program in Oregon and most out of
State Institutions. Successful
completers will be funded by Tribal
Education Department to attend the
school of their choice as long a they
complete all the eligibility
requirements.
Summer Bridge is sponsored by
the Higher Education Department of
the Education Branch and COCC and
scholarships are available through this
department. For more information
please contact Tedi Tanewasha at
Tribal Education 553-3311 or John
Hicks at the COCC office 553-1428.
