BuildersThe Narrows

Historical Interpretive Area

“They say we become

our thoughts; what

we dream about we

will become. Dream

for your people…”

…The physical

construction of this

earth lodge began

May 1, 2009.

On May 12, 2009 the final

piece of sod was laid in place...

…We are the answer to

our ancestor’s prayer…
