This
is the group of elders who came
to Pipestone from the Lower Brule
Reservation in September. They came
to an impromtu meal at the Center
when we found out that they had
no food planned in town. Within
an hour they were happily eating
at the Center. Alice is in the front
of the photo making sure all the
food plates were full.

International
performer Jackie Bird (who is one
of the women featured in our Ancient

commended the Pipestone Dakota Communities
many generations commitment to the
quarries, the stone and the Pipe.
