The Clubs in Cheyenne River announced that baseball would be a new activity this summer and we were requested to send equipment for about 50 children. Initially, equipment and uniforms were purchased for children of the Reservations in Lower Brule, Crow Creek and Cheyenne River. However, on Cheyenne River, more than 150 children signed up to play, and The Southport Congregational Church, the Fairfield Nationals Little League, Fairfield Girls Softball teams, The Soccer Post in Fairfield, and the Boys and Girls Clubs of Southport, and the Fairfield Sun newspaper all stepped in to make the baseball drive a success. When members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints heard about our efforts, one of their members, Bob Lopiano, who is also head of the Pop Warner League in Monroe, CT said, "We have been looking for the right place to donate new football equipment for several months and nothing felt right. This feels right!!"

Changing Winds purchases were made possible through donations of listeners of WBAI radio's Tiokasin Ghost Horse, Cheyenne River Lakota Sioux.

Thank you to all of our loyal supporters!
