Yakama Nation Gets Ready For The Treaty of 1855

As an enrolled member of the Yakama Nation this is the busiest time for me. The Yakama Nation gets ready to commemorate, or in my words celebrate, the Treaty of 1855. It's when we, the Yakama Nation, remember our treaty. During this weekend there will a lot of events that the public is invited to. Below is a list of events.
