I'm spending my weekend volunteering as the water stop coordinator for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. Getting this article done ahead of time, so that I can enjoy my "work". I found as I'm reading things, that certain native terms catch me off guard when I don't know what they are. So in keeping with the native theme this month, I put together some terms and explained them in this week's article. Pronouncing them is another whole problematic area for me!
