Short Description of Activity
All Our Relations organized a Celebration, spiritual gathering , artistic display and Flotilla to bring attention to the loss of their treaty rights, the demise of wild salmon due to the 4 Lower Snake River Dams. To bring people together of many backgrounds as a show of support to the local communities on the Lower Snake River that the 4 Lower Snake River Dams are migratory fish killers, their value as a seaport no longer has value and is wasting taxpayer dollars, and destroying our environment.
Reflection/Evaluation
Ten GOB members attended and we received a lot of attention with our bright signs, chatting with the public, tribal members and media.
It was a very positive experience and outcome. We might even have recruited a few new members!
