Rodeo held May 10.
goal is to provide a substance-free
activity for all youth.
This also allows the kids a chance
to try something new, learn new skills,
enjoy being with their families, and
become involved in an activity that
keeps them busy.
This was the first year of the Jr.
Rodeo event, and it underwent many
growing pains. Thanks to the
committee members who stuck it out
all year during the planning process.
Your in-vol vemcnt made this activity
a success. All committee members
were hard at work both days.
It was great to see many
community members, parents, and
even visitors, willing to lend a hand.
If you are interested in helping plan
other events with the Jr. Rodeo
Association, please contact Clint &
Sammi Allen BruisedHcad, Nadine
Scott and Buddy & Maria Hicks.

gate was taken and
efforts were done is
nding proposal
Association was
grant through the
Johnson Foundation,
agreement was the
understanding that after the first year, '
RWJF would decrease the amount of
funding each year until the grant
period ended. The Jr. Rodeo
Association is obligated to come up
with the amount decreased every
year, until at the end of the grant
period, (5 years), the association
would be self-sufficient. All fund
raising proceeds will go to providing
the activity each year.
Indian people all over the nation
arc beginning to heal and understand
how our choices to use alcohol and ,
drugs touch every part of our lives. .
As time goes on, more and more
communities are taking a stand to no
longer allow alcohol or drug use at
many community activities.
Using alcohol and drugs places
everyone at risk of harm, emotional, ,
physical, mental abuse, injury and
loss of life. What will you do to
change? What are you doing to help
your family live longer and enjoy
happy times together? The time has
come for each of us to consider these , ,
and many other questions, as our
people begin to heal. ,
The Jr. Rodeo Association is but
one of many, alcohol and drug free ; '
activities you will see occurring in
our community. We encourage you
to support these activities by joining
in and staying substance free.

Lady Vol's finish a very successful season
Mil. r :yww -.v.IfiMl ,
The Lady Vols girls' basketball
teams, we had three age groups
12&under, 13-15, and High School
age, have finished a very fine season.
Coaches Ron & Lilly Suppah would
like to express there appreciation and
thanks to the girls who hung in there
all season, through all the good times
and bad times that we as a team
experienced during the season.
At times it got real tough, but they
always managed to keep their heads
up and do what was necessary for
them to attain their team goals. They
experienced a great season and
represented the Confederated Tribes
of Warm Springs as Ambassadors in
an excellent manner.
Funding was real short and we
want to thank all of the sponsors and
we are sorry if we were pest at times.
, The greatest feeling we
experienced this year was the growth
of all of the children and the
commitment that they displayed to
get where they are. Recognition is
special and should be held up for
everyone to see. It also should be a
reminder to all of us of what hard
work will get for you. We're real
proud of all these girls and we look
forward to the coming seasons and
the future years of your young lives.
Stay good, healthily, and may the
creator continue to bless you and
your families forever!
