| Welcome to Two
Waters
This site will inform you about the progress of the new Administration
Government complex which will open in 2008. When completed,
it will provide a center of leadership, service and community
for the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community. Please
check back often to learn about the progress of this important
project.
What's In A Name?
The name of the project, two waters, represents the significance
of the two rivers, the Salt and the Verde, located on the
eastern boundary of the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Communiy.
The two waters concept will be reflected in the landscaping
design for the campus. The name also provides for the two
cultures that have come together, the Pima and Maricopa. And
it ‘speaks’ to the two buildings which are bridged
by a covered outdoor structure. Two rivers. Two tribes. Two
Buildings. The use of the number 2 is also culturally based,
being that the number is an even number.
The name "Two Waters", was chosen through a contest.
The tag line, “Center of Leadership, Service and Community,”
was selected by the Public Relations/Change Management committee
to help communicate the purpose for the new campus. |
