The Puyallup Tribe of Indians’ House of Respect in Tacoma was decorated like Bourbon Street for a Mardi Gras-themed Elders Luncheon. Lorelei Evans, the Honored Elder (middle of picture), received a tribal blanket and cedar hat. Others in attendance at the February event won cash prizes in a raffle.
