 FROM THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
Aho, Wazokina egi Hicakoro niwina (Relatives and Friends), I wanted to take the time to thank each and every one of you who made your way over to Wanaisguni Hocira for this year’s Ho-Chunk Day Celebration. It was nice to see people laughing and enjoying one another’s company. We were able to gain some feedback from many of the attendees so we have some information and suggestions to consider for next year. Thank you for offering your feedback. A special thank you also goes to the Healthy Balance Program, Ho-Chunk Casino, House of Wellness Fitness & Aquatic Center and Ho-Chunk Nation Department of Business for donating items toward the celebration. I wish to extend a sincere thank you to the staff at Wanaisguni Hocira. Many of them were working on their government holiday and for that I am grateful. Another special thank you to the volunteers who took time out of their day to help keep things running along. Although we experienced the passing of one of our Ho-Chunk relatives that day, the Walker Family gave us permission to proceed with our festivities.
Prayers were said that day that we can continue on following our Ho-Chunk way of life. So for that, I am thankful and continue to ask Mauna to abide with each and every one of us. Wa i niginap wi,
Nasanehiga

President of the Ho-Chunk Nation
