We always enjoy meeting other nations with their culture. We know of the culture of the totem pole and the teepees. Those are all out West, you know. People come down to the nation and ask where’s the teepees, you know, because we’re Indians. We have a longhouse here, and that’s what we use. But we’re always interested in sharing the problems and sharing the successes also, you know. I think we’re very honored to be a part of this, for them to stop here.
