Early documents reveal inhabitants were members of three major bands of the Sinkaietk people (or Northern Okanagans). The territory of the Methow encompassed most of the drainage of the Methow River, though they moved throughout the valley during the seasons as they hunted, fished, and gathered (USBR 2008). During the extreme winters, they sheltered in large pit houses dug down several feet into the ground. Figure 1. Dwellings made of poles, rush mats and canvas were used by members of the Methow tribe.

  • History of the Club from a to Z
    , . THE KLAHHANE CLUB GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY 1965 founded in 1915 I DEDICATION To the men and women who founded this Club our sincere appreciation To future members may this Club give you the same deep contentment in the outdoors and the same abiding friendships that it has granted to its members both past and present II PREFACE The desire to explore remote places, to enjoy the out-of-doors, to conquer difficult terrain, and to share these triumphs with congenial souls, has been the motivating force behind the formation of many an outdoor club. So it has been with the Klahhane Club. From the enjoyment of our heritage of mountain, sea, and forest, comes renewed strength and a spirit of delight which carries over into our workaday world. This is an enthusiasm which may be aroused in early childhood or later in life, but once aroused, it continues to delight throughout life, even after hiking days are done. May I conclude with a quotation from Mr. Thomas Gupthill, who wrote in the first Klahhane Annual of 1918, "Favored is he who is privi- leged to join that charmed circle of congenial spirits who find inspiration and recreation in unfrequented aisle and far reaches." by Primrose Bred! III PRESIDENT'S REMARKS Klahhane or good-times-out-of-doors has meant more to me during my fifty years of membership than any other organization. Being president (usually when no one else would take it) has been only a small part of it. There is some- thing inexplainable about its lure. You leave your safe comfortable home to go and climb a mountain.

  • School Failed Coyote, So Fox Made a New School: Indigenous Okanagan Knowledge Transforms Educational Pedagogy
    SCHOOL FAILED COYOTE, SO FOX MADE A NEW SCHOOL: INDIGENOUS OKANAGAN KNOWLEDGE TRANSFORMS EDUCATIONAL PEDAGOGY by William Alexander Cohen M. Ed., Simon Fraser University, 1999 B. A. & Sc., University of Lethbridge, 1995 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF EDUCATION in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Educational Studies) The University of British Columbia (Vancouver) November, 2010 © William Alexander Cohen, 2010 ABSTRACT This project examines how Indigenous Okanagan knowledge embedded in traditional stories, life histories and people‘s practices, responsibilities and relationships are relevant and applicable to current and future Okanagan people‘s educational and cultural aspirations. Okanagan language proficiency, cultural and territorial knowledge and practice, provincial curriculum and world knowledge are all important elements in creating Okanagan identity. The focus of this thesis is to identify, understand and theorise the transforming potential of Okanagan pedagogy through the development of an Okanagan cultural and language immersion school where language and cultural knowledge recovery are key elements, and express a new and current understanding, through a Sqilxw- Okanagan, children centred, extended family pedagogical approach and curriculum structure for current application in schooling projects and communities. Indigenous and world knowledge that improves, complements, and is compatible with evolving Okanagan knowledge and practice is included to generate an interconnected web; a convergence that may be useful in Okanagan, Indigenous and world educational contexts. ii PREFACE My research is informed by Sqilxw-Okanagan epistemology which suggests knowledge is a continuously evolving web of relationships. By gathering bits of old and current knowledge, engaging in dialogue, action, and reflection, a new understanding emerges.
