Hood Ski Bowl Flag Raising Ceremony by VFW Veterans and Blesing Ceremony by Elders Wilfred & Geraldine Jim as witnessed by numerous staff of Mt. Hood Ski Bowl as well as Staff of the Culture & Heritage Language Department was held on Friday, September 9, 2011 A re-awakening happened on Friday, September 9, 2011 between Mt. Hood and the peaks known as Tom, Dick and Harry at a placed called Mt. Hood Ski Bowl. Approximaely 60 people from both Warm Springs and Mt. Hood Ski Bowl attended a Blessing by Warm Springs Elders and a Flag Ceremony conducted by VFW Post 4217 of Warm Springs to officially open the doors to the Warm Springs Interpretive Center on the Mt. Hood Ski Bowl Park East. The D epartm ents, Lead Ichishkiin Insructor A rlita Rhoan w ith her G randdaughter A rlita offered making necklaces and daisy chain The ceremony is the result of a series of meetings between the owner of Mt. Hood Ski Bowl and the Warm Springs Culture & Heritage program staff designed to fill an information gap about the historical and continuing presence of the Warm Springs Tribes in this area. After the blessing and flag cer emony many community members rode the ski lifts to the top and picked huckleberries or just enjoyed the view. In a joint effort between the Tribes and the Mt. Hood Ski Bowl Park, the newly formed Warm Springs Cultural/lnterpretive Center will have pictures of families from the Tribes who traditionally traveled and stayed in this area, interactive kiosks explaining the importance of the mountains, plants and animals to the Warm Springs Tribes and much more. This marks the beginning of a strong and positive partnership that will benefit not only our tribal people but many of the over 4 million annual visitors to this area. A lot of the Mt. Hood Ski Bowl Staff were in atttendance and witnessed the ceremony and heard some history of our elders that were present. The Warm Springs Cultural / Interpretative Cetner is to be located at Ski Bowl East, will open its doors December 1,2011. Hans Mt.
