Safe and Fun:
Oregon Summer Star is our State’s most admired military-family support program. It’s a low-cost week of summer camp that allows us to look inward, smile outward and have the best week of our summer together. Oregon Summer Star is not about promoting military service or endorsing any political policy. It’s about preparing our youth with skills for a balanced life and about maintaining a healthy next generation of Oregon families. Our staff are well trained and recruited from other programs – they’re very good at what they do. Many have been staff for military family support camps in Oregon with Tsuga for many years. All of our staff are background checked and our nurse on site is credentialed.

22nd Annual Nez Perce Chief Redheart Memorial
Join the Nez Perce Tribe in their annual memorial to remember Chief Redheart’s band, who were imprisioned for eight months without cause at Fort Vancouver in 1877-78.
The ceremony includes singing in honor of the ancestors, the Riderless Horse (Empty Saddle) Ceremony, the Sacred Pipe Ceremony, and recognition of Veterans. Each year Nez Perce tribal members travel to sites important in their history to conduct traditional memorials to honor their ancestors.
After the ceremony, the public is encouraged to attend a traditional Native American meal, prepared and served by Bow and Arrow Culture Club located in the Artillery Barracks at 600 E. Hatheway Road, Vancouver.
There is no admission charge. Donations are welcome. Refreshments at ceremony provided by Meals on Wheels.
Located in the field to the north of the Reconstructed Fort Vancouver.
