Preserving, Protecting and Promoting the Dakota Culture for Future Generations

The MMDTC is a Tribal 501C3 Org

Been getting calls, and emails about our 28th Wacipi. The date is Sept 12,13,14 2025.

Greetings! People have been contacting me asking about our Wacipi flyer. We try to have it on the website by March so people can plan for their powwow trail.

I have added us to  DrumHop.com, PowWows.com and other places. I have been doing this for the last 15 years. Dancer for 6 years.

We will have our first powwow meeting next week at the Mendota office or maybe a zoom meeting? We have 20 people on the committee, which should be enough.

Please call me if you have any questions or comments about our powwow, I would love to talk to you. Sharon Lennartson, Tribal Chair: 651-452-4141.

If you would like to volunteer, call Rita or Maria. I will post their numbers soon.

Everyone who knows me has heard that this will be my last wacipi for at least 10 years. This is my last year. I will come and enjoy the wacipi,  for once. Wow that will be a first!!!!

Love Sharon Lennartson (Good Thunder Woman)
