The public is invited to join the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians on Saturday, Nov. 16, as it holds its annual Restoration Pow-Wow at Chinook Winds Casino Resort in Lincoln City.
American Indian vendors with jewelry, beadwork and other items for sale will be available throughout the day, leading up to the Grand Entry at 6 p.m.
This is the 47th year that the Siletz Tribe has celebrated the signing of Public Law 95-195, which re-established government-to-government relations with the federal government, making it the second tribe in the nation and the first in Oregon to achieve restoration.
The combination of Tribal employees and those at Chinook Winds Casino Resort has made the Siletz Tribe the largest employer in Lincoln County.
The Siletz Tribe has honored its tradition of sharing within the community by distributing more than $22.6 million through the Siletz Tribal Charitable Contribution Fund and other Tribal resources from proceeds at its Chinook Winds Casino.
In turn, Chinook Winds has donated more than $6.5 million in cash and fund-raising items since 1995. It also provides in-kind donations of convention space for various fund-raisers as well as technical support, advertising and manpower for events.
