Letter to the Editor – Appropriate that Tribe acknowledge support by ‘giving back’

by | Dec 9, 2019 | Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor:

I compliment the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe for its Thanksgiving holiday spirit in talcing out the full-page advertisement in the November 27, 2019 Gazette describing its monetary contributions to various Peninsula communities over the past ten years.

Since in my opinion the Tribe’s economic growth and prosperity has largely been due to U.S. taxpayers through various State and Federal grants from its inception, I also feel it is quite appropriate that the Tribe acknowledge that support by “giving back” a portion of its considerable wealth to the Olympic Peninsula area in which it resides.
