“We acknowledge that this land and water is the traditional territory of the Squalli-absh people. The Squalli-absh people are of the modern-day Nisqually Indian Tribe. The surrounding mountains, valleys, shorelines and waterways are imbued with their presence. We seek to nurture our relationship with our Coast Salish neighbors and our shared responsibilities to this place, their homelands, where we mutually abide.”
