News you can use

Letter to the Editor - Thank you, Rocky Boy elders

Editor,

For quite some time I have been thinking about a matter that has not made the news, and it is good news, really great news about Rocky Boy.

Since we have seen so much negative news about Rocky Boy in recent months (years), I speak these few words of good news. Well, I consider it great news concerning the upcoming Sun Dance. This is most certainly one of the great things about Rocky Boy.

In my RBHB work I have seen many photos about the Sun Dance, and we can say that the Sun Dance has carried on in the same way for generations. It has brought much goodness to Rocky Boy all of these years. Even the short four years that I have attended has brought me many good feelings, much peace and tranquility.

Another very positive things about Rocky Boy are the elders. Yes, the elders! I really do not have enough good words to describe the elders of Rocky Boy. But I will at least say that our elders are so very precious. What great strength, what great knowledge, what great wisdom our elders have brought to us. This was brought out again in your recent cultural training here at Stone Child College. Indeed it is our elders that provide the rock, the foundation, not just for the Sun Dance, but for all ceremonies here on Rocky Boy. Thank you, Rocky Boy elders!
