Registration
Upon looking at the registration numbers it is apparent that some participants in our program have not submitted their registration to the program yet. Please register if you have not done so already.
Registration for events such as Museum Sleepovers and campouts will be limited to those who are registered for the program.

Chiefs, Please contact Joe Minniti for a list of currently registered members.

50's 60's Dance
Event Coordinator - Mark Crane

The annual Princess 50s-60s dance will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, January 10, 2010, in the gym at the B R Ryall YMCA.  The cost is only $5 per Princess and $10 per Dad (maximum $20 per family), which includes pizza, cookies, pop/juice, and an evening of dancing and fun.  There is NO ADVANCE REGISTRATION for this event.  Participants will register and pay at the door.

 
Dads, the girls love this event!  We'll have a top-notch DJ playing dance music from all eras--everything from be-bop tunes of the 50s to the Beatles to 70s and 80s rock, and even a few of the current tunes that the older girls listen to on their ipods. The decorations and dance floor lighting will transform the gym into a fun sock-hop atmosphere.  Best of all, your daughter won't care whether your dance moves are ready for prime time.  She'll love taking Daddy's hand to spin around the dance floor as you create more great memories of your time together in the Indian Princess program.
 
Chiefs, please encourage participation from your tribe--the more who attend, the more fun the event is for everyone.  Since there is no advance registration, to help plan for buying pizza and refreshments chiefs will be asked to provide an estimate of likely attendance from their tribes at the December or January longhouse.



Chicago Bulls vs. Washington Wizards
Event Coordinator - Joe Kozlowski



The Nation will be cheering on the Bulls on January 15th. If you have ordered your tickets Joe will be handing them out at the January longhouse, so be sure your chief is in attendance. If you still wish to go to the game, call Joe Kozlowski at 630-231-5630. The cost is $20 per ticket and if you send him the money he can call the Bulls for additional tickets.

Museum Sleepover
Coordinator: Wayne Kriemelmeyer

Very good news. We have planned a second Shedd sleepover on April 9th. If you were not able to get into the first Shedd sleepover on March 19th or did not sign up for the event, nows your chance. We are guessing that we will have about 100-150 folks participating in this sleepover, although we can have up to 300 spots at this point. The cost is $60 per person and it includes parking. Please let Wayne know if you are interested and approximately how many will likely go from your tribe because he needs to get them a down payment to reserve our spots. Wayne will be collecting money for the event at the December 1st Longhouse. (We will NOT be able to switch tribes from the March 19th date to this one.). You must be registered in the program to attend this event.

Something personal. I have tried this and it is not a scam

XEROX IS DOING SOMETHING COOL


If you go to this web site,
www.LetsSayThanks.com   you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services.

How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!!    It is FREE and it only takes a second.


Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these?    Whether you are for or against the war, our soldiers over there need to know we are behind them.


This takes just 10 seconds and it's a wonderful way to say thank you.    Please take the time to pass it on for others to do.  We can never say enough thank you's.


Thanks for taking to time to support our military!
