On July 20, canoes taking part in the annual Canoe Journey will land on the beach at Point Julia. A landing site since our Tribe began participating in 1989, Point Julia represents the point in the journey where the Olympic Peninsula, Alaskan and Canadian tribes meet up with tribes from the south side of the Puget Sound. Point Julia has actually become one of the favorite spots on the journey every year. Our Tribe is known for its hospitality and clambakes and we make sure our visitors have a place to camp out and food to eat. Many members of our community open their homes for showers, laundry and warm beds for elders. From their stop in Point Julia, the canoe families (including our own) will continue their journey, eventually landing at Taholah in Quinault on Aug. 1.Get the Story:
