"Sioux North" Tribe of the GA-Sioux Nation North Valley YMCA Y-Princesses

Laughing Bear, Singing River and Shooting Star hosted the Sioux North Indian Tribe March 2001 meeting. The tribe members who attended were Crazy Horse & Tiger Lily, Flying Elbow & Bright Star, Red Sky & Red Feather, Thunder Cloud & Golden Dove, and Broken Wing & Beauty Pony. Our meeting started with our tribal role call and the pledge of allegiance. We then went through the six aims of being part of the Indian Guides & Princesses. That's something we strive to do—stick to the correct format of the nation. We discussed future events, such as the Family Night at Arena Football & our Spring Picnic for the nation. We also collected wampum and all the kids used the talking stick to explain how and why they earned their wampum. We had an announcement that Red Sky has decided, with the approval of his youngest daughter, that she will be joining our tribe next year (Indian name Quiet Song). Instead of craft time, we talked about our skit for Camp Fox and passed out updated event schedules.

We also spoke briefly about games we'll need to create for the nation picnic. Our chief had a chance to share with us his work on his totem pole, which was quite nice. So we all talked about getting those done by the end of the year campout. We said our closing rituals and the meeting was over.
