Tagish is a small, rural community in the heart of Yukon's Southern Lakes. The traditional home of the Carcross Tagish First Nation, we are on the watershed of the Yukon River and have almost continuous water access to the Bering Sea. The gold seekers of the Klondike Gold Rush of 1898 travelled to Dawson through the heart of our community .

The Centre in Whitehorse bears the name of James Mason (1856-1916). Mason otherwise known as Skookum Jim, a Tagish man of the Dak l'a Weidi Clan who discovered gold on Bonanza Creek in 1897 leading to the great Klondike Gold Rush.Skookum Jim was highly regarded by his people. Upon his death, Skookum Jim's fortune from the gold rush was put in trust, and according to the terms of his will, the interest generated by the money was to be used to help obtain a better standard of health and education for Indian People in the Yukon. The trust fund is still in existence today and the interest generated is used to provide awards and recognition to Indian People who have helped their community.
