Additional pictures from the Native America Cultural Night.





We had a great turnout for our first ever Native American Cultural Night! The NASA club members worked hard all evening and the JOM board dished up fresh Indian tacos. We cannot thank the leaders of our stations enough! They brought the whole experience together for everyone. Another shout out to the Boys & Girls Club of the Iowa Tribe of KS & NE and the Iowa Tribe Fish & Game for sponsoring the event, and to Kickapoo Housing Authority for sponsoring the Indigenous Peoples Day t-shirts. We plan to host another event in the future & hope the community will join us again!
