We invite you to consider volunteering for the Spring Equinox. Many of our Elders need assistance, as some cannot carry their chairs or walk independently. Additionally, many come without family members and would greatly appreciate your help. This Equinox event is a significant occasion for our tribe and requires considerable preparation and manpower. Your support would make a difference!
Please note this is a private event for the Chalon Tribe
