There will be an Indian taco sale at the LVD Rec center. All the proceeds will go to the LVD youth and their future involvement in Idle No More. Please come out and show
your support for the cause and these young leaders.

"Injustice for one is injustice for all."

Everyone is welcome. If you are unable to do the walk just meet the group at the LVD Rec center.
