The Pavilion Band is one of three Secwepemc bands that is not a member of either the Shuswap Nation Tribal Council or the Northern Shuswap Tribal Council. The Pavilion people are also partly Sťáťimc (Lillooet) and belong to the Lillooet Tribal Council (St'at'imc Nation). In the St'at'imcets language, Pavilion is called Ts'kw'aylacw or Ts'kw'aylaxw ("frost") (Pavilion is at a high elevation and much of the community is in shade for most of the day in winter, leading to frozen ground). The same name in the Secwepmectsin is Tsk'wéylecw. The people themselves are called the in St'at'imcets, or in Secwepmectsin. (en)
