Kizh Tribal Biologist Matt Teutimez blesses the new plaque dedicated to the tribe with sage as Chief and Spiritual Leader Ernie Perez Teutimez Salas and his daughter, Tribal Treasurer Nadine Salas, pray. The sage was pressed into the concrete on all four sides, representing the four directions. The ashes from the sage used to bless the plaque were then buried in the dirt nearby.
