To kick off this year’s event, the Committee enthusiastically welcomed the arrival of Shadow Nation. Arriving the evening of June 24th, after travelling up from New Mexico and Texas, Shadow Nation’s crew, despite being road weary hung out and exchanged ideas with some of the Committee members.

The 25th promised to be a busy day of running around making preparations for the following day’s events; the day wrapped up with the Committee planning meeting and a fried chicken dinner. The Committee met with the community and introduced the Shadow Nation band members and film crew. Shadow Nation members introduced themselves to the community and discussed their plans to film issues relevant to the people of Pine Ridge. The meeting and meal concluded with a clear agenda and hopes of a safe and successful event.
