Chief Seattle Council recognizes Indigenous Peoples’ Day as an opportunity to honor the contributions Native Americans have made.
Our council was named in honor of Chief Si’ahl (1780-1866), a Duwamish and Suquamish leader, for whom the city of Seattle is also named. Our council and programs are on the ancestral lands of Coast Salish Nations, whose people still steward this land.
On this day, we ask all Scouts and people associated with Scouting to take a moment to reflect on our relationship with all tribal nations and indigenous cultures.
