Culture and Heritage gives update
Kiksht will start another session beginning August

will be your instructors and will meet at the Culture
and Heritage office, at 6:00 pm. Keep watching for
flyers at Macy's, the Post Office, Rainbow, Spilyay,
and KWSO and in the Tribal departments for an
nouncements on Sahaptin and Paiute Language
classes.
We have a new person working for us who just
started in July. Reynolds Kelly came on through the
JTPA program as a Paiute Language Instructor. He
is ambitous and very knowledgable on the keyboard
(he gets it smoking). One of his first projects is the
Paiute dictionary which is no small task. Welcome
aboard Reynolds, we're glad to have you.
We are sad to announce that Hank Millstien who
has been with the program for 18 years is leaving us
for the bright sunshine of California. Hank will be
moving to Berkley where his wife is attending col
lege to get her doctorate in Theology. Although we'll
miss Hank we wish him the best of luck.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Remember when your
child (or baby brother or sister) was learning to talk
english. Instead of bottle he said "baba?" Or perhaps
instead of mommy he said "mama" or daddy he said
"dada?" Please remember when your learning a new
language give yourself some time to get used to hear
ing the language, practice the sounds, and allow your
self to make a few mistakes. Smile when an elder
giggles at your "dada," and remember our elders aren't
being mean-they have that pride that bubbles up in
side of them listening to your first words.
