    campaign in the Powder River area against the SIOUX and other tribes who  have not reported to the reservation. General Crook is called "Three Stars" by the Indians. He is also called "Grey Wolfe" by the APACHEs.

    URGENT HEATING NEED WOUNDED KNEE DISTRICT..READ IT...

    UPDATE:
    Hi Ish.
    Here is the information on Gordon Propane
    They will take checks or money orders and the minimum amount is $135.00 for 
    100 gallons. 
    Their address is......Gordon Propane
                                  P.O. Box 58,
                                  Gordon, Nebraska,
                                69343
                                 Ph: 308-282-1725

    the other one is Blue Gas but they recommend sending to PTI which is 
    interesting . She told me they cant afford to travel 30 miles to the rez all over the place to deliver propane so think that lets out Blue Gas. Looks like Gordon is the best one......  Bennetts are having problems and so is PTI with drivers apparently. 
    all my best:-)

    SEASON GIFTING...
    It is that time of year again when we begin to think of winter cold and those in need.  Helping hands list...

    {click for KOTA weather}

    HEATING FUND
    Emergency heating funds....the weather has turned sharply colder and it appears that it will be a much colder winter than the last few we have experienced creating an incredible hardship for many.
    Money orders sent to the Grass Roots Oglala Lakota Oyate will be distributed (or paid on account) for those in need of heating assistance.  In effect we will be creating a "voucher" system.  Your donation may be of any amount and several put together to meet minimums necessary for orders.
