“I practice traditional subsistence activities with my son, just as my father did with me and he did with his father. This tradition goes back thousands of years. One of our most important purposes as a corporation — possibly our most important — is protecting our people’s subsistence rights.”
– Former KIC Board Chair Calvin Schaeffer
