  • CHAPTER 1: RESERVATION PROFILE Tribal Background
    Squaxin LRTP 2009 Update * June 23, 2008 D R A F T * Profile Page 1 CHAPTER 1: RESERVATION PROFILE Tribal Background The Squaxin Island Tribe members are the descendants of the maritime people who historically lived along the shores and watersheds of South Puget Sound and its seven inlets. Because of their strong cultural connection with the water, they are also known as the People of the Water. Squaxin Island, four and a half miles long and a half mile wide (1443-acres), is centered near the entrances to the seven inlets of southern Puget Sound - Noo-Seh-Chatl, Steh Chass, Squi-Aitl, Sawamish/T'Peeksin, Sa-Heh-Wa- Mish, Squawksin, and S'Hotle-Ma-Mish. The Squaxin Island Reservation was established under the Treaty of Medicine Creek in 1854. The Squaxin ancestors were confined to the Island during the Indian War of 1856-57. After the war, the island’s population dwindled (no drinking water) as people left to take up permanent residence near their original homes. Although there are no year-round residents on Squaxin Island today, it continues to be regularly used by tribal members for fishing, hunting, shellfish gathering, camping, and other activities. After the General Allotment Act of 1887, the tribe gained off-reservation trust lands (about 36 acres) on Harstine Island across Peale Passage in Mason County and across Pickering Passage from Squaxin Island (about 6 acres) in Thurston County. Tribal headquarters are now located in Kamilche (18 miles northwest of Olympia and 8 miles south of Shelton) in Mason County between Little Skookum and Totten Inlets.

Gaming revenue is a major source of funding to pay for tribal government services. 11 Tribes are investing in new initiatives to diversify their economic base. Investments range from hotels to golf 1 courses to shopping centers. 19 Tribes employ more than 30,000 people statewide and pay more than $1.5 billion annually in wages and benefits. Capital spending, and the purchase of goods and services from private companies, adds billions more dollars to the state’s economy each year.

Kim Burrows, LCCR Director of Hotel Operations (also designer and interior decorator) was visably moved during the ceremony when she expressed her gratitude for all the many people involved in the construction project. "I am so proud to have been a part of this project," Kim said. "I must admit that, when I was told I would be the inte- rior designer on this project, I became a bit nervous. With so many choices to be made and so much to choose from, how would I ever get this done? Eighteen months later here we are with the most beautiful hotel in the area. I must give a great deal of credit to my staff. Without them none of this would have been possible. Carmen, Dottie and Dena did a super job of keeping me organized. The mover and installer crew worked their tails off doing whatever was asked of them and Larry always kept his head when I was losing mine. Last but not least I thank the housekeeping staff that worked countless hours to get the rooms ready for our grand opening.
