". . . My family is larger than that of most people. To belong to a Tribe and especially to be born and raised on a reservation means you have a family that numbers into the thousands. We share a beautiful land base that we cherish and where we have many memories in common. Our greatest treasure is not the material things we share but our
Elders
. They are our teachers. They hold our history in their minds. They connect us."
