Mendota Mdewakanton Dakota Community

I want thank thank everyone through out the four days. I generally spent the day and went home at night. I was nervous at first not knowing much about Dakota Culture and History. I was at first only going to spend a few hours. But after meeting the Native and Non-Native people I felt more comfortable and I ended coming back everyday through Saturday. I want to thank everybody at Coldwater. I learned a lot and I appreciated the hospitality. These fours days I will always treasure. I felt more at peace there with everyone than I do in my own neighborhood. I plan to stay in touch and become more involved.

Thanks

Todd Heintz
