Kenaitze Indian Tribe

It has been thousands of years since the Kenaitze Indian Tribe’s people, the Kahtnuht’ana Dena’ina, first inhabited the Kenai Peninsula. They call this area Yaghanen, the good land. After many challenges throughout the years, today the tribe is proud to say Naqantugheduł – the tide is coming in. The tide is coming in because it is an exciting time for the tribe and their people as they continue to work toward their mission: To assure Kahtnuht’ana Dena’ina thrive forever.

The amazing team at the Kenaitze Indian Tribe put their hearts and minds to the task of gathering and organizing information in an effort to effectively communicate the change and growth in their programs and services. We at Sundog thoroughly enjoyed working with the Kenaitze team to craft a website that is not just an amazing mobile-friendly design, but also meets the needs of the tribe and will continue to grow and thrive as the the Kenaitze Indian Tribe does.

Thank you so much for all the creative energy and hard work that you put into designing our beautiful new website! Praise from staff and our customers for our new design has been unanimous. While the project was a redesign, you literally worked from the floor up, creatively incorporating woodgrain from our Dena’ina Wellness Center into the visual foundation of our website.

While we are happy with the site, Wes and I are most happy with the service you gave us as we worked to solve the tribe’s complex communications needs. We appreciate the time you took to learn about the tribe and to understand the tribe’s operations. You were patient with us when we needed to move slowly, and ran alongside in encouragement when we were able to pick up the pace.

Sometimes within minutes of one of us describing a desired feature or asking for a function, you had an even better idea prepared for us to look at in Basecamp, your online project management tool. I am so impressed with how you used Basecamp to manage our project, we are exploring how the tribe can use the software for some of its project needs.

We look forward to using the site, both to tell the tribe’s story and to help our customers find and utilize our many services.

Thank you once more for your beautiful work!
