Want to be one of the orst Tribal members to receive smok signflz?
Want to receive the Tribal publication on your computer instead of waiting
for it to arrive in the mail?
Want to get up-to-date and in-the-know about the Grand Ronde Tribe
before anyone else?
In an effort to be more efocient and reduce printing and postage costs,
smok signflz electronic subscribers receive a PDF (portable document format)
version sent to them instead of a newsprint version sent via the mail. All
you need on your computer is Adobe Acrobat or another program that can
read a PDF and you9re set.
Why would you want to do that? The PDF version is available before the
newspaper is sent to our printing contractor in Salem. You can read the
paper on your computer or print out a copy of individual pages yourself. And
you will receive Tribal news much faster than the current standard mailing
utilized by the Tribe.
If you would like to receive an e-mailed PDF version of smok signflz and
stop receiving a mailed newsprint version, send your e-mail to esubscription@
grandronde.org. Stopping mailed delivery of the newspaper will not affect
other Tribal mail. þ
Community Fund seeking
Hatfield Fellow applicants
Applications for the 2023-24 Hatoeld Fellowship program funded by Spirit
Mountain Community Fund are being accepted through June 15.
Spirit Mountain Community Fund annually sponsors a Native American to
serve as the Hatoeld Fellow and intern in an Oregon congressional ofoce. Place-
ment of the fellow rotates through the Oregon delegation to enhance mutual
understanding between leadership in Washington, D.C., and Indian Country.
Fellows are provided an opportunity to gain knowledge and understanding
of how to navigate the political process in Washington, D.C., while working
on issues that affect Native Americans.
Fellows begin their Capitol Hill experience in November with a month-long
orientation at the American Political Science Association, which is followed
by an eight-month term working in a congressional ofoce. The fellowship
includes a monthly stipend and relocation and travel expenses.
The fellowship is for Tribal members from the nine federally recognized
Tribes in Oregon, as well as members of Pacioc Northwest Tribes. Howev-
er, preference will be given to members of Oregon Tribes. Applicants must
have a bachelor9s degree or be graduating in June 2023, and be 21 or older.
For more information, visit thecommunityfund.com/grants-programs/hat-
oeld-fellowship or go to youtu.be/7TOnNoFgUYs to watch an informational
video about the Hatoeld Fellowship.
The fellowship was created in 1998 to honor the late Sen. Mark Hatoeld9s
public service to Oregon and the Pacioc Northwest. þ
