 (tell them about my culture, our Tradition, Share music with them, etc..) 
I would tell them about, my culture, cause I come from a Salmon Tribe, I practice our Tradition of catching Chinook Salmon, me, my Dad/uncle and cousins, fished for our Longhouse for the feast. I hunt, My Grandparents & Dad tell me the important stuff to respect the River ( Columbia ), Water, Salmon, Deer, and Mountains. I'd share this of what I was taught, with them if they wanted to learn how to fish & hunt.
