Back to School Bash August 21, 2008 AST - Shawnee Complex Please join us from 5:30-7:30 Games, unflatables, school supplies and back packs Dear Fellow Tribal Members: As your newly elected Tribal Representative, I would like to say thank you for the opportunity to serve in this capacity. I am truly honored. The past month has been spent meeting with the other Executive Committee members participating in in-depth dialogue over various issues that will need to be addressed, both immediately and long-term. The cooperation that has been displayed in the aforementioned meetings is indeed encouraging. While there are many issues that require attention, I look forward to meeting each challenge head on. Regretfully, due to my family’s recent loss, this issue’s report is limited. With this in mind, in my family’s behalf, I would like to express my appreciation to those who have offered words of encouragement and support. I would like to particularly say thank you to the Maintenance Department staff for their hard work. n Sincerely, Alecia Onzahwah Representative August 2008 Report Alecia Onzahwah Tribal Representative Have a safe and enjoyable Labor Day Weekend!
