Since we gotta do the presentation about Stillaguamish Indian Tribe, I'd love to share some information I got about this tribe, including there lifestyles, mission statement, history and other interesting stuff.
First is their mission statement, they contributed to manage, protect, and conserve those natural resources that are required to sustain healthy populations of fish, shellfish, and wildlife within the Stillaguamish Tribe's U&A (Stillaguamish Watershed).I quoted this paragraph from the website http://www.stillaguamish.nsn.us/
Another good resource is http://www.stillaguamish.com/, which is a stillaguamish's website too. This website contains bunch of information about festival of the river, pow wow, their services and more. The videos and other media files viewing are available.
If you are interested in Stillaguamish Indian Tribe and get to know more about their culture and history. Here is a good place to go. http://www.native-languages.org/stillaguamish.htm orhttp://u-s-history.com/pages/h1574.html
As I know more and deeper about Indian Tribe, I feel like they just look like separately , but in some ways these Native-American Tribes are connected even very closed to each other. The reason is they all do things good for the world.
Lastly, I'd love to share a paragraph I love from one of website, which is stated their missions.
"The river is alive. It is an essential part of our lives. When it is
vibrant and healthy, our well being is preserved. We must heal and protect this precious resource, not just for our own tribal treaty rights, but because it's a wise and respectful thing to do for everyone who lives here."

This is pretty cool to know more about their lifestyle!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing those great information about the Stillaguamish Indian Tribe. And I was amazed by your information about their lifestyles and history. I went to one of the websites and the following is what I found interesting,
ReplyDeleteThe Stillaguamish Natural Resources Department maintains an accurate water quality database for selected sites on the North and South Forks and selected tributaries, the Mainstem and selected tributaries, and Port Susan. The Department collects a variety of water quality data. Currently, water quality samples are collected on a quarterly basis. Water quality data such as temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, total suspended solids, alkalinity, hardness, and fecal coliform are among the parameters the Stillaguamish Natural Resources Department collects and shares with other agencies.
