Thanks to one of my earliest volunteers, Yuki Mathias, and the Tule Lake Pilgrimage Committee, the Tag Project will be at Tule Lake!!

We have tags that need stamping, names and numbers. The Tule Lake tags will be assembled for the entire time of the Pilgrimage. Please stop by and say hello, help us complete some tags, and watch the project grow!!

The Tag Project at Kiku Gardens June 5 2010

The Tag Project will be at Kiku Gardens Saturday, June 5 from 10 AM - noon. We are now at a point where we need help taking the tags through an aging process (dunking in coffee and krinkling and setting out to dry).

If you would like to help, please bring rubber gloves, old newspapers, and if you have one, a plastic dishpan or some similar plastic container for dunking tags.

Roll up your sleeves, and join the fun!!
