Classes included preparing
dishes in the kitchen, class
time, field trips to study sea
food, learning how to put to
gether a menu, and manag
ing your own business.
“There was my obstacle,”
Angel said. “There was a lot
of emphasis placed on man

to come up w ith a m enu

learned how to keep track of
kitchen inventory, keep track
of the budget. We learned
how to identify what plates
are selling and what is not. We
learned how to create an at
mosphere, and how to iden
tify which wines went with
certain dishes.”
After graduating, Angel
began the process of apply
ing for a small business loan
in Warm Springs. However,
she quickly became discour
aged by the amount of pa
perw ork and steps that it
would take to secure a loan.
“I just get things done bet

more motivated, there would
be more customers in the
city, and I w ant to create
something with atmosphere.
I want something that people
will look at and say, ‘There’s
Angel!”’
Eventually, Angel would
like to open her own food
cart. On the side, she plans
to specialty catering.
Angel beams as she speaks
of the person that she once
was and the woman she has
become today. She is, as she
puts it, back on her feet.
“I can do this, anybody can
do this,” she said. “But be

a concern
for tribes
Leadership of Northwest
tribes have called on the U.S.
Army Corp of Engineers to
conduct a full environmental
analysis for all six proposals !
to transport and export coal
through their shared lands j
and waters.
Driven by exploding Asian
demand and declining domes
tic consumption of coal, ex

up at Oregon and Washing
ton ports.
Six proposals call for trans-!
porting Powder River Basin,
coal from Montana through
Indian and non-Indian lands!,
in the Northwest via rail and
barge.
Tribal communities are!
expressing concern about the
health and safety impacts;;
from environmental dangers;!
of coal dust.
“Along the Columbia River
it’s cliff, highway, railroad,-
then river,” said Paul Lumley,
executive director of the Co- !
lum bia River Inter-T ribal
Fish Commission.
“ O ur com m unities are
wedged between the railroad
and the river. We’ve got no
where to escape.”
said Paul Lumley, Execu
tive Director of the Portland-
based Columbia River Inter-
Tribal Fish Commission. “If
we cannot escape, neither will
the coal.”
KWSO hosted a voter registration day last week.
