SALISH SKILLS SEMINAR, OCTOBER 1989

This crew was as sunny as the weather. (Some thought we'd pushed it a bit to cruise in October.) Seated from left: Merideth Means, Anna Manildi (cook), Caryl Chaplin, Warren Callahan, Dorothy Philipp, Jim Graeser, Frank Von Culin. Standing from left: Rollie Wulff, Skipper George Hall, Steve Philipp. Cruise with us this year May 11-14. This opportunity to learn from Steve and Dorothy Philipp should not be missed. Hands-on activities included making halibut line from nettle fiber in the Salish tradition and making a mat of tule reed sewn with split and softened cattail leaves.
