Hozomeen Gathering Event: Documentary video completed!

The Skagit Environmental Endowment Commission invited Washington and BC First Nations, archeologists, anthropologist and other interested people to gather at International Point in the Skagit Valley September 12 – 13, 2009.

This two-day ‘Gathering at Hozomeen’ focused on understanding and honoring the long history of Indigenous Nation involvement within the Upper Skagit River Watershed.

The event included demonstrations of traditional activities, tours on Ross Lake, interpretive walks, displays, speakers and celebration.  Throughout the two-day program there were opportunities to share knowledge and stories about this unique mountain landscape.

A video documentary was completed in early July, 2010.  This 45 minute documentary was made possible with generous support from Seattle City Light and was produced by Bear Image Productions in Chilliwack BC.

SEEC has a unique mission to promote education, research, collaboration and cross-border stewardship of the Upper Skagit Valley.
