    Hoopa tribal members learn carpentry skills - Times-Standard, CA
    HOOPA -- Members of the Hoopa Valley Reservation's Tribal Civilian Community Corps (TCCC) learned carpentry skills at a two-day introductory orientation sponsored by the Carpenters Training Committee for Northern California in Fairfield.

    Journeymen trainers worked with the Native American corps members during the Nov. 27-28 session to show them the fundamentals of hand and power tools, according to Mike White, district coordinator for the Carpenters Training Committee. He said the program is the first step in training that could lead to being a member of a Northern California carpenters union.
