Supporters gave the walkers $270 towards the effort to oppose The Escalade development at The Confluence.<o:p></o:p></p></div><p>Phoenix residents were scrambling to drive a supply of water up to the walkers, who expect to make it to Window Rock on Tuesday, where they will file formal protests against a proposal to build a tourist attraction that would interfere with traditional life and sacred sites at the Confluence of the Grand Canyon. The Hopi Tribal Council has passed a resolution opposing the development, known as The Escalade. Yet, leaders of the Bodaway/Gap chapter, which has oversight over the area, rescinded two prior resolutions voted upon by a majority of the residents opposing the development. The chapter leaders instead called for a re-vote that resulted in<em><b> very narrow</b></em> passage of a measure, 59-52, to take 420 acres away from the residents and give it to the developers.<o:p></o:p></p><p>If you want to join somewhere along the journey, help with supplies, host, etc..for now you can call 928-856-1665 or 928-255-7126.<o:p></o:p></p><p>Ahe’hee & Askwali<o:p></o:p></p></div></div></body></html>
