These are the 2015 Pacific Northwest Archaeological Society (PNWAS) News Bulletins with activities of the society for that year. In 2015, Lower Elwha Tribe leadership presented at our new Seattle Mountaineers auditorium about heritage sites found behind the two dam removals on the Elwha River. Ed and Dale Croes presented on their upcoming book, Re-Awakening Ancient Salish Sea Basketry, Fifty Years of Basketry Studies in Culture and Science. Field trips went to the Lower Elwha Dam removal site and Neah Bay and to Ed Carriere, Suquamish Elder's, studio. We have included a spreadsheet for each year of PNWAS and attached News Bulletins for that year to document our 40-year history. As Director, Dale Croes compiled each of these News Bulletins. As originally stated in our founding in 1985, the Pacific Northwest Archaeological Society (PNWAS) is a membership organization that “offers a means for individuals and organizations to declare their support for the preservation of the rich archaeological resources in our region and help to bring public archaeology programs to people of the Pacific Northwest. Benefits of membership include timely information on Northwest archaeological research, a bi-monthly lecture series and opportunity to participate in professionally supervised research in the Northwest.” PNWAS was incorporated as a non-profit organization in the state of Washington and has remained true to these original objectives. Dale Croes remained the Executive Director throughout these 40 years, with a President, Vice-President and other Officers on the Board. The best way to view the overall history of PNWAS activities is to review the PNWAS News Bulletins, 1985-2025.
