However, I will bring a fresh
perspective to the Council Table
that will enable Tribal Council
to be more effective in dealing
with the challenges it has been
struggling with.
The many leadership roles I
have held during my diverse
career have prepared me for
serving on Tribal Council. I
believe that a Tribal Council
representative should set the
tone and direction for tribal
government on important issues
such as crime, burglaries, drugs,
drug dealers, domestic violence,
juvenile gangs, housing, jobs,
poverty, education, economic
development, job training, em
ployee accountability, strategic
planning for tribal government,
preservation and teaching of
traditions and customs, high
school and college dropouts,
academic achievements, and
development of tribal manag
ers and supervisors.
But most of all, the Agency
District Representative must put
the people first above travel and
outside meetings, workshops,
and special interests. There is no
one more important than the
tribal membership. It is the re
sponsibility of our Tribal Coun
cil to insure that we have a safe
and secure community for all of
us. It is Tribal Council responsi
bility to protect the people's
monies and natural resources.
I have the experience, the
knowledge, the desire, and the
willingness to work hard and be
a strong contributor on Tribal
Council. We are all in this to
gether and our Tribal Council
needs to reflect that reality in
the way it does business, I am a
team player, and with your help,
I can make a difference in bring
ing the Confederated Tribes of
Warm Springs back to where it
belongs. At the same time, we
(you and I) can make the future
brighter for our children and the
children yet to come.
I respectfully ask for your
vote on Election Day.
Jeffery E. Sanders Sr.
I would like to apologize to
the officer of the Warm Springs
Police Department for all the in
convenience and hassle. Thank
you for all your help. Sincerely,
Jerry Clement. v
To the Tribes: On Feb. 1,
while traveling south on High
way 26, there was an accident
at approximately milepost 77. I
am sincerely wondering if the
people of Warm Springs and
those involved in this accident
accept an apology for your in
convenience. Sincerely, Mark
Miller.
To all the people in Warm
Springs, I am sorry for being toes
up on the day of July 21, 2003
around 2:35 a.m. I am apolo
gizing for the way I was that day,
and thanks to the cops for look
ing out for me. Spencer Poitra
To Warm Springs: This is a
letter of apology. On August 9
the crime of DUII, reckless en
dangerment and duties of a
driver were committed by my
self. I had been lucky no one
had been hurt because of my
foolish actions. I frightened
some people and I am sorry one
of the victims felt that my pun
ishment had not been enough
to satisfy her. I am sitting out
my sentence so I have a lot of
time to think about this foolish
action and what it could have
caused. I apologize to Webb,
Greene and the gentleman and
his wife their name I cannot re
call. I am sorry for putting them
and countless others in danger
and hope they accept my apol
ogy. Thank you, Kendrick J.
Arthur.
To Taylor Kennedy I would
like to say sorry for what my
brother and me done. And I
hope you accept my apology.
Cause I would like to have peace
in the future. And maybe we can
be friends and not enemies.
From J. Lamcbear.
To the people of Warm
Springs: On August 6, 2003 I
was issued a citation for DUII.
On February 26, 2004 I was
sentenced, please accept my
apology for being so irrespon
sible that day again I'm sorry.
Thank you, Gregory Jackson,
Sr.
To D. Lamebear: Hey Mom,
just writing to say Hi and that I
love you very much and I'm
sorry for all the bad things I've
done. Hopefully when I get out
I'll do good, it'll give me time to
think things through. Just know
that I'm very sorry and I'll see
you later. From your son, J.
Lamebear.
To the community of Warm
Springs: I would like to say I
am deeply sorry for my actions
in September of 2003. 1 will not
let myself or others be so im
mature. I would like to apolo
gize to the others who were in
the vehicle and to the owners
of the other vehicles. Robert
Sam, Jr.
To the Confederated Tribes
of Warm Springs. I, Donell
Vale Frank, am apologizing for
breaking tribal laws during the
summer of 2003. I put family
friends and other people in dan
ger and that is very important,
because of these acts. I must
make better choices in my life
in order to be a positive model
to some of the youth that look
up to me. I must change. Thank
you for your time.
This apology goes to Dallas
Winishut. I'm sorry for not
nominating you during the
Agency District meeting.
Though by coincidence two
weeks ago I mentioned to you,
"if you were ready for nomi
nees this year?" You said, "yes,
you were." I guess I should have
asked you if you were certain
because last term 2000 you de
clined my nomination due to a
project you were working on.
But I really thought you could
have been the voice for our
Warm Springs community chil
dren regarding their education,
recreation and communicative
needs. So, keep up the good
work in all you do. Stay posi
tive. Laurel Wheeler.
I'm writing this apology to
my family who I hurt by doing
the unthinkable. I messed up and
lost your trust. I tried to correct
my wrongdoings with an apol
ogy and reasons for why I did
what I did and also repay my
debts. If I could, I'd change what
happened but it's in the past. I
can only look back upon it, learn
from it and change my lifestyle
for the better. I also want to
thank everyone who has ac
cepted my apology and forgiven
me but still remains to be there
and support me through the
hard times I am facing. Respect
fully, C. Spino.
I would like to take this time
to apologize to Officer Roch
elle for my behavior and actions
on March 7, 2004. A.R.S.
