Wide- eyed acceptance

Emmaline Piturachsatit accepts an award May 3 at a Lake Roosevelt Elementary School assembly for winning first place in the K-3 category of a regional poster contest for fire prevention, sponsored by Amerind Risk, and coordinated locally by the Colville Tribal Housing Authority. Housing Services Officer Melissa Meza presented her the award after remarks by Executive Director Douglas Marconi. The two also traveled to Omak East Elementary and to Inchelium School to present to other winners "to show appreciation for their involvement

in fire prevention in our communities and to highlight their amazing artistic abilities with their peers," Meza said.
