Indian Health Service "Lost In Pace" Ladies Team walk 126 miles
The Indian Health Service
Health & Wellness has a
Women's walking team that has
been in the Portland to Coast
relay for the last three years.
This team came together at a
last moments notice by one of
the team members, the co
captain Michelle Najera over
hearing a conversation at the
clinic. Really not knowing too
much about this relay, they got
a team eager to accept this
challenge.
This event was started 10
years ago in 1990. It is the
largest walk relay in the world;
largest walking event in Oregon
and longest walk relay in North
America. The event begins in
Portland and ends on the beach
in the Oregon coast town of
Seaside. The coarse distance is
126 miles. There are 400 teams
for a total of 4,800 participants
in this event; 12 members per
team, there are males and
females. Each member walks
two legs, which consists of 24
legs (mileage per leg can be 3.9
to 8.2 miles, terrain ranging
from easy to very hard).
This year's event began
Friday, August 25, and Satur
day, August 26, 4 a.m. to 9
p.m. Total athletes for all the
relays were 18,000 with 4,000
volunteers.
These events are all for a
good cause. They are to help the
American Cancer Society.
The first time walking
team brought together was in
1998. Team members were:
Sharon Miller, Becky Uunt
Lucei, Coleen Greene-Reed,
Shirley Earl, Margarita
Gonzales, Sara Thomas, Jeannie
Seyler, Earlynne Squiemphen,
Lynn Fluhr, Michelle Najera,
Snari Marrazzo and Judy Budd.
That year, money was raised to
cover all their expenses and
S250 to send to the American
Cancer Society.
This year's team consisted
of: Debbie Hansen, Michelle
Najera, Sharon Miller, Sara
Thomas, Michele Gemeles,
Coleen Greene-Reed, Jeannie
Seyler, Earlynne Squiemphen,
Joy Harvey, Ann Seyler and
Judy Budd. They raised enough
money to cover all their ex
penses and to send $153 to the
American Cancer Society.
Sharon said as they walked they
each said named people they
knew that had cancer, survived
cancer or not or prayed for the
families that were left behind.
They are looking forward to
next year's walk already. It's a
combination of teamwork,
individual efforts and goals and
memories of those we know and
love who have had cancer touch
their lives.
Five individuals have
walked the past three years and
they are Michelle Najera, Sara
Thomas, Sharon Miller, Judy
Budd and Earlynne
Squiemphen.
Six individuals have
participated two years and they
are: Becky Hunt-Lucei, Coleen
Greene-Reed, Shirley Earl,
Jeannie Seyler, Shari Marrazzo
and Joy Harvey. Also there are
those that are called upon at the
last moment to fill in whenever
something unexpected happens
and they gladly step up to fill
the gap, that is the substitutes:
Lynn Fluhz, Donna Strong,
Susan Forsting, Grace Cho,
Debbie Hansen, Michel
Gemeles and Ann Seyler.
The first place team was
from Portland, Oregon and was
RWNNW-In Your Pace! With a
time of 18 hours 31 minutes 06
seconds. "Lost In Pace" was
231 with a time of 29 hours 16 -minutes
49 seconds; each year
they are getting a faster time.

W.S.B.C. travels to one-day event
On August 26, 2000 the Warm
Springs boxing club participated in
the Coyote Boxing Smoker, which
was a one-day event.
The Smoker had nine various
boxing clubs take part. 22 actual
matches were made, and of these 5
warm springs boxers saw action.
Leander Smith (651bs.) of W.S.B.C.
won by decision over Bubba Corpuz
of LC boxing club, out of Toppenish,
WA. Johnny Smith (951bs.) of
W.S.B.C. defeated Jorey Valle of
Coyote boxing club by a first round
TKO. Louis Smith (1421bs.) of
W.S.B.C. won by decision over
Randal Corpuz of LC boxing club,
Toppenish, WA. Briana Stacona
(741bs.), a ten-year old girl from
W.S.B.C. lost by decision to Deloras
Martinez of LC boxing club.
Jasper Smith (851bs.) lost by de
cision to Johnny Drywater of Coy
ote boxing club, of the Colville
Tribes of Washington.
There were many more boxing
matches, some good and some try
ing. Practice before you train. Con
ditioning does you better then talk.
Even walking will train your
thoughts. Boxing is a sport some
times it becomes an art. I think it is a
past time. I'd like to say thank you
to Trey Leonard for the van, it sure
made the long travel easier. I would
like to thank the community center
for their encouragement of this sport.
I would like to see boxing here for
fun. I believe we need to have a Com
munity Center event take place.
Boxing against crime, alcohol,
drugs and street violence. Some times
we win other times we lose.
Support the Warm Springs box
ing club.
Jasper Smith got a 14 years old
and under award for having the best
match in that age group.
Thanks for asking us up to your
tournament Colville. You treated us
very good.
Thank You,
W.S.B.C Coach
