Thanks to all those community members of the Oglala Sioux Tribe who came out to enjoy our event and walk to fight against Heart Disease in Native America.

http://www.lakotacountrytimes.com/ Read about the event online.

It was wet and muddy and chilly but people were very supportive and strong!

Worked with the Local radiostation to give shout outs and promote our walk.

The track was not cleared until we got there.

Make sure the track is cleared ahead of time so the participants do not have to wait to walk.

Planning a montlhy activity in order to fight diabetes and other chronic illnesses among our native populations.
