Compact
Louella Nahsonhoya
Hopi Tutuveni
By a majority vote of 12
in favor, 4 opposed and 0
abstaining, the Hopi Tribal
Council approved Resolution H-110-2016, authorizing and directing Hopi
Chairman Herman G.
Honanie to request a State
Gaming Compact with the
State of Arizona and the
Hopi Tribe.
With a declining revenue, the Hopi Tribal Council continues to discuss
and pursue economic development opportunities,
as a priority, to maintain
a balanced tribal budget
consistent with the purpose of serving the welfare
of the Hopi people.
On Aug. 6, 2015, the
Council created a Hopi
Gaming Task Team with
the assignment of exploring the Advantages and
Benefits of Tribal Gaming
and the leasing of Hopi
gaming machines to Tribes
who already have established Casinos.
The Team visited and
met with several Gaming
Tribes and compiled a Final Report which they presented to the Tribal Council on October 3; after they
had presented their findings to the Hopi people at
Village meetings and also
in Phoenix, Flagstaff and
Albuquerque.
The Council accepted
the Report and the Recommendations of the Task
Team in which they recommended the Hopi Tribe
enter a Gaming Compact
with the State of Arizona.

From P1 HTC approves 2017 Budget
Due to the shortfall in the
Hopi Tribe’s Revenue, the
Budget Oversight Team
(BOT), chaired by Vice
Chairman Alfred Lomahquahu, Jr. was directed to
complete a proposed FY
2017 budget with a 12%
cut from the FY 2016
approved budget. Challenged with the reduced
revenue and directive from
Council, the task proved
to be burdensome as many
Departments,

and Villages, were greatly
impacted and some programs would be left with
zero dollars to operate.
After several months of
work and careful review
of all budget proposals, the
BOT, spearheaded by Budget Analyst Wilfred Gaseoma, presented the first
recommended budget to
Council for a preliminary

review in October. At that
time, the Council made
their “priority” recommendations to either cut and/or
not fund certain programs.
Four Villages, lacking financial audits, were only
funded $82,500 (to complete their audits)
The Council stated ALL

After receiving recommendations from Council,
the BOT notified programs

Obama should protect
Grand Canyon while
there’s still time
By: Rep. Paul M. Grualva (D-AZ) and
Hopi Chairman Herman G. Honanie
The Grand Canyon is recognized by the United Nations as a World Heritage
Site thanks in large part
to its unsurpassed beauty,
which encompasses extensive stretches of old-growth
forests, unique geologic
features and pristine watersheds. Thousands of plant,
animal and aquatic species,
some of which are found nowhere else on Earth, thrive
above and below the canyon
rim, right down to the Colorado River itself. The area
has been home to humans
for more than 12,000 years,
a span that includes some of
the earliest known cultures
here in North America.
The Hopi tribe considers
the Grand Canyon a place of
origin, a spiritual home and
sanctuary of cultural tradition. The tribe’s history and
culture cannot be separated
from it. For generations the
entire community has considered the Canyon hallowed
ground. Few issues unite
the tribe like the continued
preservation of the Grand
Canyon and the surrounding
area, and that’s why today
the Hopi strongly support
the proposed Greater Grand
Canyon Heritage National
Monument. President Obama
should use his power under
the Antiquities Act to establish this monument and protect this sensitive land while
there’s still time.
Hopi ancestors left behind abundant and tangible
proof of their existence here.
These footprints of Hopi history include ancient villages,
migration routes, artifacts,
petroglyphs and the physical
remains of buried ancestors.
These are remembered and
maintained through oral tradition, pilgrimage, song and
prayer. Among the many other values a well-preserved
Grand Canyon provides the
people of this nation and our
entire planet, these culturally important places must
be protected to ensure Hopi
people can continue to interact with their ancestral
past. This interaction forms
a living connection between
Hopi people, their ancestors
and the Grand Canyon itself,
which is just as important today as it has ever been.
This connection continually reminds Hopi of the responsibility to preserve essential

qualities of life: clean air and
water, unspoiled wilderness
- and the peace of mind that
comes with knowing future
generations will enjoy these
same gifts. The Hopi tribe
is aware these qualities are
under continued ecological
threat from uranium mining,
unregulated
development,
loss of old-growth forests and
the degradation of watershed
areas. The Greater Grand
Canyon Heritage National
Monument will end those
threats and protect one of the
world’s greatest unspoiled
natural areas once and for all.
When the balance of nature is disrupted, especially
by something as dramatic as
the construction of a mine or
the diversion of a river, the
landscape cannot simply be
put back together as it once
was. Such impacts negatively affect not only the natural
and cultural values of the
Grand Canyon region, but
the spiritual values that are
at the heart of Hopi tradition.
That’s why Chairman
Honanie hand-delivered a
letter to President Obama in
April urging him to establish
the Greater Grand Canyon
Heritage National Monument
before he leaves office. It applauded his efforts to recognize and preserve culturally
important Native American
sites around the country and
asked him to “afford the
Hopi, and all other Tribal
Nations that hold the Grand
Canyon as sacred, the same
respect and dignity by bestowing Monument status
on the Grand Canyon watershed.”
The Hopi tribe is firmly
committed to working with
presidential staff, congressional representatives, federal, state and local agencies in
the development of this monument. In doing so, the tribe
will rely on its traditional
values of humility, cooperation, dedication and mutual
respect. These values are the
foundation of its unified call
for the protection and preservation of lands that remain
as important to the Hopi cultural landscape today as they
have been for centuries.
Rep. Raúl M. Grijalva
(D-Ariz.) is the ranking
member of the House Committee on Natural Resources. Herman Honanie is the
chairman of the Hopi tribe.

FMES students
Cont’d from P1
The group spoke of the
consequences of unsafe water to young children and
youth who still have strong
bodies. They also talked
about the effects on babies
from nursing mothers as
well as the unborn.
The group is in strong
support of completing the
Hopi Arsenic Mitigation
Project (HAMP) and encouraged Tribal Council to
prioritize water issues and
appropriate H-13 Tribal
funds to support completion of the Project. To date,
two wells have been drilled
near the Turquoise trail area
through funding provided
by the EPA. Because of the
Tribe’s incomplete financial
audits, it has been a challenge to apply for Grants.
Before the group concluded, they told the Council to expect their continued
presence and challenged the
Council to provide quarterly updates to the Hopi
people on their efforts to
resolve the water conditions
and bring clean, safe water
to the community.
In their classrooms,
FMES students wrote letters to Tribal officials about
their concerns and learned
that members of the Hopi-Tewa community movement would be attending a
Council meeting on Nov.
21. Honyouti’s 6th grade

class was invited to attend
and present their letters of
concern.
“I knew this would be
a tremendous opportunity
for the students to pursue
an active role in their community,” said Hoyouti.
The children spoke and
and the Council took to
heart what they had to say.
3rd grade students made
posters and presented each
Council member with a
poster. Messages on the
posters were inscribed with
essays and pictures of the
importance of water. Two
students, Sheldon Joseph,
3rd Grade (Sichomovi Village) and Luther Emerson
Jr., 6th Grade (Shungopavi
Village) read their letters
aloud to the Tribal Council.
One student stated: “The elders and adults always talk
about doing things for future
generations, our children
and our children’s children.
We are the children they are
talking about.”
“This moment is the first
of many where the students will be working to
make a change,” said Honyouti. “They understand
their actions and words
are purposeful. I am very
proud of these students.”
Before leaving, the children recited their Daily
Pledge to Tribal Council:

First Mesa Elementary School
6th Grade
Daily Pledge
Today is going to be a great day.
I thank the Creator for waking me up today.
I’m going to school so I can learn, go to college,
and be the leader that the Creator
has made me to be.
Today I will be empowered by my teachers,
with the tools to be successful within my village
and throughout the country.
I will apply myself daily. I study and ask questions when I don’t understand.
When I’m confronted with a problem or conflict,
I think before I react.
I will ignore all negative influences in the classroom and throughout the school day.
tion

I’m extremely proud to be the next generaof Hopi and Tewa leaders.

I accept responsibility and I love the challenge.

Hopi Department of Transportation awarded COPYIGHT
funding for Sign Upgrade and Replacement Project The Tutuveni holds the copyright to all artiCrystal Dee
Hopi Tututuveni
The Hopi Department
of Transportation (HDOT)
submitted an application
to the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)
to receive funds for signage
upgrades and replacement,
and stripping. The Sign
Upgrade and Replacement
Project and Stripping Project are sponsored by the
Northern Arizona Council
of Governance (NACOG),
which the Hopi Tribe is a
member of. HDOT was approved for the sign upgrade
and replacement project at
100% with no matching
funds required.
“The Highway Safety Improvement Program
(HSIP) is a core Federal-aid
program, and the goal of
the program is to achieve
a significant reduction in
traffic fatalities and serious
injuries on all public roads,
including non-State-owned
public roads and roads on
tribal lands. The HSIP requires a data-driven, strategic approach to improving
highway safety on all public roads that focuses on

performance.” (U.S. Dept
of Transportation)
Michael Lomayaktewa,
Director of HDOT said
these funds were available
to tribes, but only Hopi and
Navajo applied.
“We were required to
take inventory of all the
signs within the villages
and major roadways,” said
Lomayaktewa. “We also
included the state highway
in the inventory as well.”
Both Hopi and Navajo tribe will split $50K
in FY2017 for the design
phase of the sign replacement project and then an
additional $500K plus for
construction.
“Right now there is no
set amount of how much
money Hopi will receive,
but our submission is that
we have done all of our
footwork already,” said
Lomayaktewa. “NACOG
did inform us that a majority of our signs were
approved for replacement.”
Lomayaktewa said getting funds to replace the
signs is significant because
individual signs are costly to replace. A standard

speed limit sign can cost
anywhere from $75-$125,
and that is not including
the post (hardware).
“We currently have old
signs that are ineffective
during the evening and
weather related events because of the lack of reflectivity,” said Lomayaktewa.
“Having proper signage
will help to reduce traffic
fatalities and serious injuries.”
Signs that will be replaced are regulatory signs
such as stop signs, speed
limit signs, yield signs and
cautionary signs; and information signs and mile
markers.
The actual construction
of the sign replacement
and upgrade will take place
in 2018; Hopi will contract
with the State who will replace all the signs. The new
signs will be whatever the
standard is at the time of
replacement.
Hopi was not approved
for the Stripping Project
because they did not meet
the requirement which
was a systematic approach
where all of the roads had

to be interconnected.
“If we had known that,
we could have used the
state highway to be restripped and we would
have met that eligibility,”
said Lomayaktewa. “We
will have to wait for the
next opportunity and we
will submit another application.”
Lomayaktewa added being approved for the signage project was made possible through everyone’s
work in the passage of the
“Hopi Strategic Highway
Safety Plan”. This safety
plan will be useful in sharing certain traffic fatalities
that can be used in data reporting to make improvements on Hopi roadways.
“Crash data collection is
very important to us,” said
Lomayaktewa. “This will
also help first responders
when they come upon an
accident and finding the
cause. We are educating
one another.”
Lomayaktewa reminds
everyone to eliminate cellphone use while driving; he
hopes to start a campaign
on this in the near future.

The Hopi Education
Endowment Fund (HEEF)
saw an eventful month
of October. During that
month, the HEEF held its
13th annual Alumni Challenge, and also hosted its
3rd annual student & donor recognition event, in
addition to holding its annual public meeting and
electing new officers to
its Executive Committee
(EC). The student & donor recognition event and
the annual meeting were
both held in Tucson at the
University of Arizona, on
October 21st and 22nd, respectively.
At the annual meeting,
the HEEF board members
and staff convened to discuss the HEEF’s work over
the past year. HEEF staff
and board (and others in
attendance) also received
updates from HTGSP and
portfolio information from
Merrill Lynch.
One of the main highlights of the meeting was
the ratification of newly
elected members. Tessie Moate (Kykotsmovi),
Candace Hamana (Moencopi), Carrie Watahomigie

ANNOUNCEMENTS

(Shungopavi), Wanda Jean
Lord, and Jana Wilbricht
were the five new members elected. Re-elected
members include Romalita
Laban (Walpi), Dr. Angela
Gonzales (Shungopavi),
Janet Regner, Dr. Pam
Powell, and Dr. Kim Kahe-Corkin (Sipaulovi) who
served as EC president
from 2015-2016.
Officers for the 20162017 term were elected
by the The HEEF EC on
October 26th. The EC is
responsible for overseeing
the Fund and providing
guidance and leadership
for the HEEF. Taking Dr.
Corkin’s spot as president
is Romalita Laban, who
formerly served as vice
president. Laban currently
serves as First Mesa Representative on the Hopi Jr/
Sr High School Board.
Other HEEF EC officers elected include Trevor Reed (Hotevilla) - vice
president, Capt. DeAlva
Honahnie (Oraibi) - treasurer, and Debbie Nez
Manuel - secretary. Reed
is a former HEEF recipient
who is currently working
towards a doctoral degree

from Columbia University.
Capt. Honahnie formerly
served as CEO of Hopi
Health Care Center. Manuel currently works as Executive Director of Morning
Star Leaders, Inc.
Members whose board
terms ended include Dr.
Jeremy Garcia, Debbie
Onsae and Arvis Myron.
LuAnn Leonard, HEEF
Executive Director, wished
to express thanks to all
the outgoing HEEF board
members. “Askwalí to all
of our members for their
selfless commitment of
time and energy and other
resources given to support
the HEEF’s mission,” said
Leonard.
As a way of showing
thanks to its students and
donors, the HEEF themed
its fall event “Creating
Pathways…”. The theme
was meant to be representative of those who help
pave the way for future
generations to receive an
education.
During the event, students in the Tucson area
who currently receive
funding from the Hopi
Tribe Grants & Scholar-

ships Program (HTGSP)
were given certificates and
gift bags. SRP and Peabody Energy, who sponsored the event, presented a check for $200,000
for the 2016 scholarship
awards. The event also
included a successful silent auction, which raised
over $1700 and consisted
of several pieces donated
by Hopi artists and other
generous donors.
Another fundraising effort at the event was the
conclusion of the HEEF
Alumni Challenge, which
is a fundraising competition among the three Arizona universities and other
schools across the country.
The competition began
on October 7th and ended
with the Arizona Crushers
(alumni from non-AZ universities) being announced
as the winners. The challenge raised over $4,000,
due in large part to donations and support from
HEEF board members.
The Hopi Education
Endowment Fund is a
non-profit entity of the
Hopi Tribe.

Hopi High School’s
cheerleading had one of its
best years last year when
they competed at regionals, held a little girl cheer
camp, performed stunts
for Second Mesa Day
School and brought spirit
to Hopi Jr/Sr High School.
But Coach Jessica Erales
left earlier this year and
the cheerleaders have been
searching for their identity
since that time.
About 18 students have
gone out for the basketball season cheerleading
squad.
“That’s the most we ever
had,” Capt. Greta Quotskuyva said about the
squad.
Larren Masayesva joins
Quotskuyva as co-captains
and seven returners join
the cheerleading unit.
Quotskuyva said cheerleading is important because cheerleaders serve
as ambassadors representing the school, the community and themselves.
“Our goals are to try to
build confidence, make

the cheerleaders outgoing,
aware of their surroundings and better people,” she
said.
Quotskuyva doubts that
the Hopi High cheerleaders will enter any competitions this year.
“This year is nothing like
last year. This year it’s
more on me. I am showing the girls what to do,
how to do their cheers and
their forms. It’s stressing
me because some of the
girls have attitude. I never
had attitude with the past
girls,” she said.
Quotskuyva said if she
keeps pushing the cheerleaders, and having late
practices, that they will get
the job done.
She said the best part of
cheerleading is the performances including dancing,
yelling, showing school
support, being at the
games and watching everything that happens.
“It’s cool.I like it,” she
said.
Quotkuyva said this season is like starting all over.

Hopi Senom Transit Coochise runs in New Enforcement Services
starts weekend trial York City Marathon October Arrest Record
run to Flagstaff
Louella Nahsonhoya
Hopi Tutuveni

The Hopi Senom Transit started a weekend trial run
into Flagstaff last month to see how many riders they
would get.
Shawn Silas, Transit Supervisor said the trial run is
on volunteer basis because the drivers work 40 hours a
week, but is hoping to hire a part-time driver to do the
weekend route next year.
There will be another trial run on Dec. 10 starting at
7:10 am from the Hopi Police Department with stops
at Circle M, Second Mesa Post Office, Hopi Cultural
Center, Seba Dalkai Jct. 87, Rt. 87 and N50 crossroad,
Winslow Wal-Mart and Kachina Square. The weekend
fare is a flat rate of $4.00.
The first trial run had seven to eight passengers with
additional passengers getting on in Winslow to Flagstaff
where there was a layover of five to six hours.
Silas said they would like to keep the weekend route
going, but due to the shortage of staff they are not able
to.
“The drivers get paid for working on the weekend, but
since they already worked 40 hours it’s up to them if
they want to work,” said Silas. “It’s all on a volunteer
basis.”
The Hopi Senom Transit is in the process of hiring
a Service Technician and is also looking into hiring a
temporary driver.
“We are looking for someone who is willing to work
30 hours a week; driving the weekend route and when
the other drivers are on leave,” said Silas.
Another service the Transit offers is what they call a
“deviated fixed route”, meaning they can make stops
other than their designated stops along their routes.
Silas said they get calls from riders to be picked up
along the route or requests from elders and people with
disabilities to be picked up at their homes.
“That is at the discretion of the driver to determine
if the bus can make to the front door of these homes
because the bus is big and needs enough space to turn
around,” said Silas.
A new route to Tuba City was added in September
with a full-time driver who makes two trips a day. Silas
said the ridership for that route fluctuates and hopes it
will increase.
There are three stops in Tuba City; the Hospital, Basha’s and the Honahni Building in Moencopi.
Next year, Silas said they will use the Greyhound terminal in Flagstaff which will meet up with the bus coming in from Phoenix and Las Vegas.
Flagstaff will have two drop off points; Kachina
Square and Greyhound Terminal. This is made possible
through the Inter-City funding.
Donovan Gomez, Director of the Hopi Senom Transit
said they are looking at ways to serve the community
better.
“That is what our program is for; to serve the community not only on the weekdays, but on the weekends as
well,” said Gomez.
For more information you can call, (928) 734-3232.

Code Talking with American Indian Language
Development Institute-AILDI: A Conversation
with Clark Tenakhongva and Sheilah E. Nicholas
By Maya Patterson, Online and Marketing
Content Intern for Worlds of Words
TUCSON, ARIZ. – The
American Indian Language
Development
Institute
presents Code Talking with
AILDI: A Conversation
with Clark Tenakhongva and Sheilah E. Nicholas from 3 to 4 p.m. on
Wednesday, December 7 at
Worlds of Words (WOW).
On this 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl
Harbor, Tenakhongva and
Nicholas will discuss the
importance of the Hopi
language during World
War II and the power of
American Indian language
diversity.
“The words the code
talkers used are powerful
and life sustaining,” says

Tenakhongva. “At the
same time, they contributed to the end of the war-and to the end of lives.”
Tenakhongva is with
The Hopi Veterans Affairs
and a veteran of the U.S.
Army. He will share the
lesser-known experiences of Hopi code talkers,
the complicated motivations for their service and
reflections on how their
service may conflict with
cultural values. Nicholas
is an associate professor
in the University of Arizona College of Education in Teaching, Learning
and Sociocultural Studies.
Her area of expertise and
research background in-

cludes language diversity
and cultural studies.
WOW partnered with
AILDI for their current exhibition, “Code Making and
Perspective Taking.” The
display includes historical
documents and photographs
about the contribution to
the war effort by American
Indians from many nations
and is provided by the Hopi
Veterans Services and Hopi
Cultural Preservation Office, The Hopi Tribe.
As part of the display,
questions and reflections
on the military service of
American Indians are collected. One participant
asks, “I see that you have a
book full of names of peo-

ple who helped create the
codes that helped the U.S.
win WWI and WWII. So
why is it that these names
and what they stand for are
not in our history books?”
Tenakhongva and Nicholas
will address questions such
as these as well as others
brought to the conversation.
This event is free and
open to the public. Light
refreshments will be provided. AILDI and WOW
are part of the Department
of Teaching, Learning and
Sociocultural Studies in
the University of Arizona
College of Education and
the event is a partnership
between AILDI, WOW
and the TLS Café.

Poleahla said she is happy to announce the Hopi

in purchasing any of the
items available online.
“All of Mesa Media Inc.
products are in Third Mesa
dialect because of academic value and because I cite
the Hopi Dictionary all the
time,” said Poleahla.
Poleahla currently teaches the Hopi Language class
at Hopi High School where
she has students from all
Hopi villages. Poleahla took a Hopi language
class from the late Emory
Sekaquaptewa; he taught
his students how to change
a word to reflect each village’s dialect. That is what
Poleahla teaches her students so they can learn it in
their own dialect.
Poleahla said she would
like to see a Hopi textbook
developed for the Hopi
Language class before she
leaves so that it could be
used by the students.
“I will have a rough
draft in place by the time
I leave,” said Poleahla. “I
also want to create lessons
for all of the music CD’s,
language learning CD’s
and DVD’s we have now.”
During the summer
break, Poleahla is busy
creating new products for
Mesa Media Inc., she is
the creator and developer
of all the language learning materials.
Mesa Media Inc. was
founded in 2004 by Poleahla and the late Ferrell
Secakuku. In 2005 they became a 501(c) (3) non-profit Hopi organization.
“The mission of Mesa
Media Inc. is to revitalize
the Hopi language, which
encompasses the philosophy of land stewardship
maintained by Hopi people for centuries.”
Through grants, they are
able to produce these Hopi
language learning products to keep the Hopi language alive and to keep the
cost of these products at a
reasonable price so that
everyone can learn.
Poleahla remembers the
first cassette her and Secakuku released.
“We recorded ourselves

with a handheld recorder and then transferred it
onto a cassette tape,” said
Poleahla as she smiled
and laughed. “It was a lot
of work because we had
to print and stick the labels onto the cassette ourselves, then we advanced
to CD’s; and now I can
just send a request to order
more CD’s and it comes
pre-packaged. We have
come a long way.”
Poleahla said Secakuku
was the composer on three
of the music CD’s; he always
knew which words to use
and how it should be sung.
The last CD, “Living
through Hopi Songs”, they
released together and dedicated it to their grandchildren.
Secakuku passed in
2007 and Poleahla believes he is still with us in
spirit and each progress
Mesa Media Inc. makes,
Secakuku and Sekaquaptewa is looking over them.
The next learning materials Poleahla is working
on is a color by number
