The Canoe Journey — an annual gathering of Northwest Native canoe cultures — visits Suquamish July 19 and Port Gamble S’Klallam July 20. This year’s visits will be more intimate than previous years. Canadian and North Sound canoes are traveling to Vancouver Island en route to the final destination of the Quinault Nation on Washington’s Pacific Coast. Suquamish and Port Gamble S’Klallam are hosting canoes only from South Sound; those canoes will proceed along the Olympic Peninsula en route to Quinault. More
than 100 canoes are expected to visit Quinault Aug. 1-6. Suquamish Cultural Activities Director Tina Jackson said the Suquamish Tribe will host about 10-12 canoe families from Nisqually, Puyallup, Squaxin, and the family of Canoe Journey founder Emmett Oliver. The public can watch the canoes land in the afternoon. The landings will feature traditional welcomes in indigenous languages, followed by a dinner for canoe families See JOURNEY, Page 4
