Nya Weh Indian Village Education Tent Schedule2023
The theme for this year is “Warriors”.
For thousands of years, American Indians have protected their communities.A Warrior’s customary role, however, involved more than fighting.Warriors cared for families in need and helped during difficult times.They did anything to ensure their people’s survival, including laying down their lives.Many American Indians view service in the U.S. Armed Forces as a continuation of the customary role.
