Yakama Nation Commemorates The Treaty of 1855

The Yakama Nation is commemorating the Treaty of 1855 today through Sunday (June 5-7).

I'm an enrolled member of the Yakama Nation, and we all live in an area rich in culture --
including my favorite: the food. I would like to invite everyone to come to the Rez and enjoy this weekend's events in White Swan, including the Pow Wow, where you can find me! Or the rodeo. There are also softball tournaments planned in Toppenish. Below are the dates and times:

• June 5 -- Yakama Nation Diabetes Program fun walk/run, 8 a.m. in Toppenish; Yakama Nation Treaty Day Parade, 10 a.m. in Toppenish.
