Sharon Leishman, Director, Duwamish Alive Coalition: sites along the river are
very special for their natural, cultural, and tribal significance. Public needs to

connecting them all would be a benefit. It's approximately 3 miles. It's a story of
people and culture. Will find out about signage that is used at Longfellow [reek.
Shelia: the TAC could facilitate experiences along the river.
Michael: Potential to include this work in our Strategic Plan.
