Unfortunately
the Intertribal Wordpath Society will not be able to offer a
Celebration of Oklahoma Indian Language and Culture this October,
for the first time in 10 years. We're disappointed not to be
able to honor Indian language speakers in this way this year,
and we didn't make this decision lightly, but staff health problems
and low funds have really left us with no choice. We may sponsor
some other small event before Christmas. Watch this site for
announcements. We hope to have our 10th (not exactly annual)
Celebration in 2008.
