Growing up in the Arizona White Mountains, I spent countless hours playing sports on the White Mountain Apache Reservation. Every opportunity I have to experience traditions of Arizona’s Native tribes leaves me with an even deeper sense of admiration and gratitude.
Recently, I was honored to serve as the Master of Ceremonies for a traditional White Mountain Apache pageant. It was a true privilege to witness firsthand the beautiful traditional dances, regalia, and cultural celebrations that make this community so special.
Thank you to the White Mountain Apache Tribe for welcoming me as an honored guest and allowing me to experience and celebrate your traditions 🤍.
With love from the Sweetheart State,
