CHRISTMAS

bingo. The activities made
every moment exciting for
families that could make it to
our reservation to celebrate
Christmas.

Families greeted each other
with smiles and hugs.

Children enjoyed unwrapping
Christmas gifts from the tribe.

One after another, they ran
to accept a special gift after
hearing their name on the loud
speaker. Their eyes lit up as they
excitedly unwrapped and shared
the surprise with their family.
They later played with their toys
as families sat down to enjoy
bingo.

A special thanks to all of the
elves that planned, wrapped and
volunteered their time to make
this a wonderful celebration.

It was a gift of love from
employees, the community and
all of those who helped make
the day a success.

Again, thank you. It is so
greatly appreciated how the
tribe helps create awesome
memories for its people.
