Come and join us for the nation’s largest non-motorized parade! 

How often do you get a chance to be in a parade with your daughter? Don't miss this event! 

We designed a special Pawnee Nation t-shirt with the name of EVERY princess in each tribe on the back. We went ahead and ordered one for every princess and father in the nation. Trust me, you're going to want this shirt whether you make the parade or not! This is our final farewell shirt commemorating the end of the Indian Princes program. 

We will meet at El Horno Street at 8:30 to 9:00 am to ASSEMBLE the Tee Pees (See Map). We will then roll to the staging area (marked with the Tee Pee on the attached map).

$20 per person covers the cost of materials for the floats, entrance fees and T-shirts for everyone. 

The parade starts at 11:00 AM. Be there or volunteer to be Chief next year!

Announcing a special treat!

 

The Tritz family has extended an invitation for a weekend in Big Bear @ Chateau Tritz. 

 

This promises to be a great weekend, but space is limited.  See the attached for info and details!

Wahoka Ahwahneechee!

 

Boy, lots going on – please take the time to read this email, you don’t want to miss out on any of the fun.

 

Pawnee Nation Fishing Derby –This Saturday @ Laguna Niguel Regional Park.  See the attached flyer for time & information.

Forecast calls for possible rain, but we fish rain or shine.  I’ll bring a pop-up to provide some shelter from the elements. Check the flyer for other suggestions on what to bring. 

With regard to food, each tribe is on its own.  Since this is a register @ the door event, just plan on bringing a little extra grub to share with your fellow tribe members.  There are a couple of grills near our assembly area so you’ll be able to cook dogs, burgers , etc.    

 

Globetrotter Game – Tickets are available for the World Famous Harlem Globetrotter Game on Saturday February 14 – 1 PM.  Yes this is Valentine’s day but you’ll be home in plenty of time to take your Sweet Valentine to dinner.   There are good seats at a great price for the game … sign up on the Y website.  See the attached flyer for details.

 

YMCA Annual Campaign – No doubt the Princess program has created many unforgettable memories for you & your daughter.  And even though many of us have had to tighten our financial belts, compared to others we are still blessed.  I know many of you already donate your time & money to other worthy organizations, but I am asking you to consider making a contribution to the YMCA Annual Campaign.  Funds donated during this campaign will be used to provide direct assistance to families who would like to participate in programs such as the Y Princess program but just don’t have the financial resources.  The bulk of donated funds will be used to offset the cost of the Y’s before/after school childcare programs.  Most of the families that will benefit from these resources are hard working families.  There is no pressure to give a certain amount … all donors will be recognized for their contribution (but I hope that we can at least match the $1,300 that was collected as an incentive to drop lbs).  The goal for the Beach Cities YMCA Princess & Guides program is $18,000 so get your family and friends to kick in a little as well.  A member of the YMCA Board of Directors will be visiting an upcoming tribe meeting to provide you & me with more information about how we can donate.  Thanks for our consideration.  

 

If you have any questions regarding the above, shoot me an email or give me a call:

Friday December 5th is the last day to register on-line for this great holiday event.  There will be no on-site registration for this event - you must register on-line!

If you plan to attend Camp Fox at Catalina Island (Oct 24 -26) go on-line and register now!  Space is extremely limited … there are only 70 spaces for all Pawnee Nation dads & daughters and registration will be on a first come first serve basis. 

 

Since Jacquie with the Y has retired, we do not have a regular contact at the Y so you will need to register on-line.  You will not be able to register for Camp Fox if you have not previously registered with the Y for the 08-09 YP program so let’s get on if gents.

Give the squaw the afternoon off!  Make sure you to come out to the 2008 Turkey Shoot!  There will be games for the kids & a champion dad/daughter egg-toss team will be crowned.  Let’s show the other wimpy tribes who the MIGHTY really are – the AHWAHNEECHEE!!  No less than 100% participation from our tribe is the goal!  No excuse for not attending - you’ll be able to sign up on-line w/ the Y or call Erin Johnson at the Y (link to Y site & Erin’s phone number are on our website www.ahwahneechee.com). 

 
FOR ALL NEW WARRIORS/PRINCESSES & RETURNING WARRIORS W/ NEW PRINCESSES

This is the annual induction ceremony for you and your Princess.  Please contact Mike Linares whether you plan to attend or not so we can make sure you are properly recognized during the induction ceremony.  If you have not decided on an Indian name yet, try & make a decision soon – part of induction ceremony is recognizing you & your daughter by your new tribe name.

Wow, what a weekend!  Speaking for my Princess (who had so much fun she lost her voice) & me, Camp Fox was a blast!  If you were unable to attend, Eric DelaMare Chief of the Fox tribe put together a fantastic slide show.  It’s not long & worth the time to view – click on the following link.  Make sure you watch the video clip @ the end – talk about a leap of faith!  http://albums.phanfare.com/isolated/FHx8nRnK/2419149/2907024

Our next regular monthly meeting is scheduled for Tuesday November 4th – this happens to coincide w/ another very important event – ELECTION DAY.  The Ahwahneechee are deeply rooted in the community so in order to avoid a conflict w/ our civic duties our November meeting is cancelled.  Our next meeting will be on Tuesday December 2nd. (Can you say ho, ho ho?)  I’m looking for anyone with musical talent that might lead a little holiday sing-song.  Also think about a great holiday craft the girls can make.  I’ll be calling for volunteers for both in a couple of weeks.

November 22nd is the annual Pawnee Nation Turkey Shoot & New Tribe Member Induction Ceremony.  Traditionally the Ahwahneechee have hosted this event, but for various reasons, this year the Cherokee will host.  What this mean is our tribe can actually attend this event & enjoy the afternoon as guest rather than frantic hosts.  Bring the entire family for a day of fun, games & great food.  Make sure you get this event on your family calendar, especially new members – this is your special day!  (A little recognition to Carolyn Nilsen, Cassandra Lambros & Caroline Kennedy – a piece of their respective Turkey Shoot artwork from the October meeting made it into the patch. I’m hoping to post all the artwork on the tribe website.)

Camp Fox – Attached is the flyer – there may be more to come.  Warriors – one whole tribe got shut out of the event so the Y is reviewing the registration list to make sure everyone is registered properly with both Y & tribe.  Word is folks not properly registered may get bumped.  MAKE SURE you are registered with both our tribe & Y.  If you are not sure call Erin Johnson at the Y before she calls you.  Erin’s contact info is on the Ahwahneechee web site (www.ahwahneechee.com).
