Heard about the drive to fund a statue for Chief Garry? The story is tied back to one that used to grace Chief Garry Park in Spokane, but that due to age and vandalism, was removed two years ago.

A grass-roots movement to create a replacement honoring one of the Spokane Tribe’s most recognized and important leaders has been underway ever since. Recently, word arrived from a former FOF Board member that a benefit concert is planned - headlined by solo artist and Colville Tribal member Jim Boyd.

Saturday, April 25th, 7:00 pm at the Bing, tickets are just $15, with all proceeds going toward Garry’s statue. Very worthwhile.

A copy of the event poster is linked below. For more info, call 509-458-6586.
