Tribal Nations Conference: Correction

I'm realizing I should have done more research before touting the recent Tribal Nations Conference as the first of its kind. The first such summit occurred in 1994, under the Clinton Administration:

"Loretta Avent, Deputy Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Affairs and the first-ever official tribal liaison to the White House, organized the Clinton tribal meeting at the White House in 1994. All federally recognized tribes were invited, and over 200 leaders attended. It was the first such meeting, and the last, until Obama's Tribal Nations Conference. "

Whoops. Does anyone have a recollection of this event in 1994?
