Law students from East China University of Political Science and
Law in Shanghai, China, try out the judge’s bench and take photos in
Tribal Court during a visit to Grand Ronde on Friday, July 24. Cultural
Education and Outreach Program Manager Kathy Cole was their guide
and in addition to the court, the law students toured Chachalu Tribal
Museum & Cultural Center, met with Tribal Council and ate lunch at
the Elders Activity Center. The university is sister universities with
Willamette University in Salem and annually students make a trip to
Oregon and the Tribe is typically a stop during their time in the area.

Nineteen Native youth were among the 36 participants who earned
their Hunter’s Safety certificates on Monday and Tuesday, July 20-21,
by taking a class offered by the Tribe’s Natural Resources Department’s
Parks and Recreation Program at the Tribal gym. The class was taught
by Micky Garus and Adrian Porter from American Outdoors. The class
is required for hunters age 17 and younger before they can hunt.
Every student enrolled in the class passed their exams and received
certificates. “Well done and thank you to everyone involved,” said
Jerry Bailey, Tribal Parks and Recreation specialist.
