practice, fostering sustainability when it comes to hunting and inspiring others to <br /> engage in environmental stewardship. It is a symbol of gratitude and respect for those <br /> who dedicate themselves to the protection and perpetuation of our shared natural <br /> resources and our cultural resources. <br /> That's a general overview; it doesn't need to be stated exactly like that—we can edit <br /> based upon our ideas. Right underneath that is the nomination information—this is just <br /> basic—the nominee, basic information, nominator information and then a description <br /> and detail of contribution so you got to write a little. I know this is a community that we <br /> work with our hands a lot but, we got to write some words so that way we can get these <br /> nominations through. The number two proof of alignment with the award criteria <br /> community engagement, stewardship, history and number 3—any supporting <br /> documentation and number 4, which is the last one is our community support—so we <br /> need 25 names for this nomination. This is a way that we can empower each other as an <br /> expert or someone who is a leader in the field. You know, a lot of the hunters, the <br /> gatherers—they seem to think of themselves as just general, basic people. Well, when <br /> we actually have people with the most knowledge out there that know the most about <br /> moss or Genki balls or people who spend their whole lives dedicated to managing the <br /> resources. Anyway, I wanted to give back to the community from us—GMAC by giving <br /> these kind of awards and nominations out. Accompanying the award is a letter of <br /> certification—whether we got to pay for that out of our funding—or we could get the <br /> County to actually make —you know how we were talking last meeting about the post <br /> cards—same thing—instead of a post card you just put "certificate" and we use that <br /> hard stock or whatever and we can all sign it and give the community something that <br /> maybe we could afford to. Any discussion on this idea? <br /> TWC: This is Wong Chong, District—2, 1 think this is a groovy idea, honestly, and not just to <br /> recognize the individual but just to help GMAC's push and recognition as well for the <br /> community. I especially like stewardship, and having the 25 names is especially like— <br /> that's basically what we need to do with GMAC. We need to get out there more and this <br /> is one of the ways that we can do that and, I second this 100% so, good job on that <br /> Leomana... <br /> LT: Thank you. <br /> RD: Duerr, District— 1, yeah, nice job. This is the gonna work—the only question I have is <br /> inserting under hunter/gatherer community. We pulled from our mission so, which <br /> would include the preservation of subsistence hunting and fishing, as well as protecting <br /> traditional and cultural gathering rights. As a basis of awarding it. The other question I <br /> have is like, you know, the fifty community signatures, is that going to become a lot of <br /> work. So, what's your thought on collecting the signatures? <br /> LT: I think the signatures, ah, it's that 25—did I put 50 [unclear]. <br /> TWC: Fifty... <br /> 24 <br />
