Dozens of tribal representatives met last week to continue planning for the upcoming Lewis and Clark Bicentennial Commemoration of 2003-2006.

Tribes played a key role in the journey of the explorers and are seeking a greater role in the commemoration. Consultation, archaeological protection and tourism were among the issues discussed.
