Humanities Washington Speaker Event:
Hunting, Fishing, and Native Sovereignty-Aaron Whitefoot
What happens when the sovereignty of one nation conflicts with the laws and practices of another?
The Treaty of 1855 is a document signed by Native American leaders, Washington Territory’s Governor Isaac Stevens, and Oregon Territory’s Superintendent of Indian Affairs, Joel Palmer. Palmer and Stevens pushed for “exploitative treaties” by “cajoling and threatening the delegates,” according to historians at the National Park Service. Despite resistance from Yakama Chief Kamiakin, Nations were confined to reservations and other areas were opened for white settlement, including “ceded land.” While the Yakamas could continue to hunt and use this land, the treaty removed the Yakamas’ exclusive use of it, granting wide access to of the land to white settlers.
Northwest treaty rights continue to be frequently discussed in communities and courtrooms. In his talk, Yakama hunter and fisherman Aaron Paul Whitefoot discusses the history and tensions that linger from this treaty. While exercising the hunting and fishing rights reserved for him by the treaty, Whitefoot often clashes with state game wardens trying to implement state laws on ceded land. Learn how this struggle is emblematic of the larger history of colonialism, sovereignty, the value of nature, and traditional cultures.
Humanities Washington Speaker Event:
Race, Gender, and Monsters: What Vampires and Werewolves Reveal About Ourselves and Our Culture- Bernadette Calafell
Why do some monsters seem to resonate through time?
What do they say about our social and cultural anxieties around difference—in particular race, class, gender, sexuality, nationality, and ability?
This talk explores the shifting meanings vampires and werewolves have taken in popular culture, with a particular focus on the 1980s through the 2000s. In addition, these figures will be compared to the early Universal horror film monsters Dracula and The Wolf Man. Discover how the monsters we love tell us a great deal about ourselves and our changing cultural ideas about difference.
There will be two race divisions.
The first race is a timed 1-mile race and is open to 1st–5th grade students. If
there is enough participation, we would like to score teams based on the
students attending grade school and prizes will be given accordingly.
The second race is a community 1-mile fun-run and is open to all ages.
Cost: Registration will be the day of at the track. The cost is $5.00 per person
or $20.00 per family to participate regardless of which race you choose. Either
Cash or Checks will be accepted.
Fundraiser: The proceeds from this event go to support the Aberdeen
Cross Country Team and Aberdeen ASB.
“It was a great first tide series of the season last week (Oct. 3-7) with soft wind, calm waves, and dry skies that resulted in mostly limits for those that came out,” said Bryce Blumenthal, a WDFW coastal shellfish biologist. “We are hoping this next tide series will bring similar success with lower and earlier tides that should allow for daylight digging opportunity the first few days.”
In early fall the beaches still have a lot of sand built up, which can make beach driving hazardous. WDFW asks diggers to drive carefully on the uppermost part of the hard-packed sand, avoid wet sand and not to create congestion leading on and off the beach by parking on the approaches.
The Washington Department of Health (DOH) requires test samples for marine toxins, and domoic acid levels must fall under the guideline level before a beach can open for digging. Domoic acid, a natural toxin produced by certain types of marine algae, can be harmful or fatal if consumed in sufficient quantities. Final approval usually occurs about a week or less – sometimes two to three days – before the start of each digging series. More information about domoic acid, as well as current levels at ocean beaches, can be found on the WDFW’s domoic acid webpage.
The following digs during evening (p.m.) low tides will proceed as scheduled, after marine toxin results from the DOH showed razor clams are safe to eat:
- Oct. 15, Tuesday, 5:31 p.m.; 0.5 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
- Oct. 16, Wednesday, 6:18 p.m.; -0.5 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
- Oct. 17, Thursday, 7:03 p.m.; -1.3 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
- Oct. 18, Friday, 7:49 p.m.; -1.7 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks

- Oct. 20, Sunday, 9:24 p.m.; -1.4 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
- Oct. 21, Monday, 10:16 p.m.; -0.8 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis

November will kick off with razor clam digging opportunities on four coastal beaches, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) shellfish managers confirmed today.
“Our first fall storm arrived this past weekend, but that didn’t stop diggers from braving the elements and trying to get a limit,” said Bryce Blumenthal, WDFW’s recreational razor clam manager, “Hopefully the weather gives us a break for this next tide series from Nov. 1-5.”
The Washington Department of Health (DOH) requires testing of razor clam samples for marine toxins, and domoic acid levels must fall under the guideline level before a beach can open for digging. Domoic acid, a natural toxin produced by certain types of marine algae, can be harmful or fatal if consumed in sufficient quantities. Final approval usually occurs a few days to a week before the start of each dig series. More information about domoic acid, as well as current levels at ocean beaches, can be found on WDFW’s domoic acid webpage.
The following digs during evening (p.m.) low tides will proceed as scheduled, after marine toxin results from DOH showed razor clams are safe to eat:
- Nov 1, Friday, 7:15 p.m.; -0.2 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
- Nov 2, Saturday, 7:47 p.m.; -0.4 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks (switch to standard time)
- Nov 3, Sunday, 7:22 p.m.; -0.4 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
- Nov 4, Monday, 8 p.m.; -0.3 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
- Nov 5, Tuesday, 8:42 p.m.; -0.1 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
Below are additional tentative dates:
- Nov 13, Wednesday, 4:15 p.m.; -0.2 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks

No digging is allowed before noon during digs when low tide occurs in the afternoon or evening. Most successful digging occurs between one and two hours before the listed time of low tide.
In fall beaches still have a lot of sand built up, which can make driving hazardous. WDFW asks diggers to drive carefully on the uppermost part of the hard-packed sand, avoid wet sand, and not to create congestion leading on and off the beach by parking on the approaches.
All diggers 15 or older must have an applicable fishing license to harvest razor clams on any beach. Licenses can be purchased from WDFW’s licensing website, and from hundreds of license vendors around the state. WDFW recommends buying your license before visiting coastal beach communities.
The 2024-25 Razor Clam Management Plan is available on WDFW’s razor clam webpage.
