I'm also passion- ate about ice hockey, which I played growing up.

Hinton, 35 Lawyer, Passamaquoddy Tribal Citizen, Drummond Woodsum Significant professional accom- plishment: The enactment of LD 906, which provided criti- cal financial support to a Washington County water district and amended the Maine Indian Claims Settlement Act to restore the Passamaquoddy Tribe's ability to regulate drinking water within its territory. Passion project: Lacrosse has been a major influence in my life. After major knee injuries while playing lacrosse in college, I began to focus my lacrosse driven energy on the reintroduction of the game in indigenous commu- nities, where the game originated. In 2018, I started an annual Wabanaki youth lacrosse festival, which just had its fourth annual event and rotates among the Wabanaki communities here in Maine.
