The event called, “Power Paddle to Puyallup” is expecting more than 5,000 to attend protocol in Puyallup during the week long event
second landing, after Port Gamble, with an expected landing date of July 28th The exact times will be determined by the Skippers and the tides closer to the date We could expect close to 70 canoes to land on the shores of Suquamish and approximately 3-5,000 people to attend protocol. As in years past, volunteers will be requested to assist with various tasks including, food service, the information booth, trash pick-up, and gift making. Watch for sign-ups (out soon!)
