102nd Annual Membership Meeting

Thank you to everyone who joined us in person or virtually to celebrate our shared successes, shape our future, and enjoy a special event created just for you!

We laughed, learned, and connected at an unforgettable event! This special LIVE edition of Red Hoop Talk featured the hilarious and groundbreaking comedian JR Redwater. A citizen of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, a U.S. Navy veteran, and a pioneer in Native comedy, JR captivated audiences with his sharp wit and compelling stories, including his role in Showtime’s Goin' Native: The Indian Comedy Slam, the first show of its kind in Native Country. Held in collaboration with our Annual Membership Meeting, the event celebrated the power of Native voices, humor, and storytelling.


The event took place on December 4, 2024, at Soboba Springs Golf Club in San Jacinto, California, with both in-person and virtual attendees joining us. 

Thank you again for making this an evening to remember!
