Event to improve Elmer Quinn Park
Warm Springs Prevention
will host a 3-on-3 basketball
and skateboard competition
to promote a smoke-free
Elmer Quinn Park.
If the event is a success,
and the park is designated as
smoke-free, then Prevention
could qualify for grant fund-
ing for park improvements,
such as an irrigation system.
Scott Kalama, Tobacco
Prevention and Education
coordinator, is organizing the
competition, set for Friday,
March 27 from 9:30-11:30
a.m. at Elmer Quinn Park.
The Soaring Butterflies-War-
rior Spirit youth program is
co-sponsoring the event.
Kalama has had success
with other smoke-free
projects on the reservation.
He proposed a resolution to
Tribal Council designating
tribal buildings as smoke-free.
Council passed the resolution,
which allows smoking no
closer than 25 feet to the
nearest door or window of
the public tribal building.
Last month Scott and the
Training for seafood handling

The HACCP (Hazard
analysis and critical control
points) on Friday will be
from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.; and
on Saturday from 8:30-3:30

HACCP training is a food
safety management tool that
is recognized internationally
in the commercial food in-
dustry.
Obtaining the training can
assist you with the ability to
present certified food prod-
ucts to recognized and highly
valued markets, such as
Safeway, Wal-mart, etc.
This training is sponsored
by the Warm Springs Land
Use Planning Committee.
Lincoln’s Powwow Commit-
tee hosted the first smoke-
free powwow at the Simnasho
Longhouse. His program is
funded by a grant from
Smoke Free Oregon.
A project for the future
will be looking at making
tribal housing units smoke-
free, Scott said. Meanwhile,
the March 27 competition
will help raise awareness of
the tobacco prevention and
education. For more informa-
tion you can reach him at 51-

The goal of the Warm
Springs Tobacco Prevention
and Education program is to
increase the health of tribal
members by sharing knowl-
edge of the traditional and
sacred use of tobacco, and
promoting respect for it.
The program educates
people, with an emphasis on
youth, about the health risks
of tobacco use; and creates
an environment where tribal
members can be as healthy
as possible.
