Nevada Woodchucks, you will NOT want to miss the July 10th membership meeting! The program will feature Mr. Jay Martin, Western Shoshone of the Yomba Shoshone Indian Reservation, Washoe.

He will demonstrate his extraordinary basket weaving skills. He will also make available materials and tools for a number of our members to learn the basics of basket weaving.

During the meeting, we will have ample opportunity to enjoy hearing Jay’s vast knowledge of Native American culture. His knowledge of the flora and fauna of this area is especially fascinating and how native species hold cultural, ecological, and nutritional significance in the Native Americans’ traditions and diets. Jay recently displayed such knowledge in a lecture at the Nevada Arts Museum.
