Community Meeting: Tulalip Tourism

On Thursday, May 28th the tribe is holding a community meeting to discuss Tulalip tourism. Dinner will be at 5pm, elders served first and the meeting begins at 5:30pm. This is a time to learn about what other tribes are doing, what the county is doing, and what the state is doing to promote tourism. A chance to see if that's a direction that the tribe would like to go. Really hope to see you at the meeting, and help us decide what tourism will look like at Tulalip.
