This summer Nastasia Turet came back
to Marshall from Seattle where she had been living for many years.
When she came back she first went up to Ohogamiut for Youth Camp.
Ohogamiut was the place where she was born (in 1945). It had been 12
years since she had been to this place. She said it's been
interesting to be with children she hadn't met before. While she was
at the camp, she cut fish which she hadn't done since 12 years ago.
And it was very hard to handle the fish and the ulu,she said. Even
the scent of the fish was bad because it had been so long. Another
thing that bothered her was when she had to pluck ducks and all the
lice from the ducks crawled all over her hands. And another thing was
when she had to use the bathroom, it was hard for her because she was
too used to flushing the toilet. Even the flies annoyed her. And when
she had to go to bed it was hard for her because it was too bright,
and the dogs were always barking outside. She was too used to cars
beeping and going by and people hollering or screaming
outside.
She said that while she was going up
to camp in the boat it was scary for her because she hadn't been in a
boat for 12 years. After the Youth Camp was over she went berry
picking at a place where she used to go when she was a little
girl.
She also told me that the old church
up at the camp is now being torn down and will be rebuilt by next
year.
