We had a one-of-a-kind August meeting, filled with culture and a surprise Eagle Feather Ceremony provided by Jim Kemp. We have many pictures to enjoy and Jim offers a message of gratitude for the CNCV.

We had a record turnout and incredible Annual Campout this year, filled with great activities, people, and food. See more here.
