Great Evening of Fun and Food!
The Eagle Project is holding a fundraiser for Bill Yellowrobe, Jr. We are trying to raise money to produce his outstanding new play, "Wood Bones" in NYC next spring. If you are in the NYC area, please make a reservation and join us! Bring your friends! I just heard that the American Indian Community House in Manhattan is bringing fry bread (in addition to all the other great food!). Join us for a good cause and some mighty good eatin'.

Gadugi is Cherokee for "Everyone Paddles." It also means if you have the chance to help someone, help them. In the Cherokee Nation, there are 'gadugi' events organized in every season of the year. People come together to build a home, for instance, refit an existing home for a disabled soldier or elder, dig a well, even lay a pipeline to bring water to a whole community. All volunteer and a traditional service everyone is honored to perform. "Everybody paddles." Gadugi! means everybody paddles NOW!
