Gracious Host for: The Miami Valley Council for Native Americans annual "Keeping The Tradition" Pow Wow!
Long before the arrival of Europeans, the Miami Valley was home to native peoples. Archaeological excavations at a site near the Great Miami River uncovered evidence of an 800-year-old village built by the Fort Ancient Indians. SunWatch Indian Village, a National Historic Landmark, is a reconstruction of that settlement of long ago.

SunWatch Indian Village/Archaeological Park is now a drop-off site for The Miami Valley Council for Native Americans Annual Clothing and School Supplies Drive. Donations support the people at Standing Rock and Cheyenne River Reservations in South Dakota. To learn more visit www.tmvcna.org/5cloths.htm.
