On the 9th day of September the Crazy Eights Tribe of Arapahoe Nation met
at the teepee of our chief, Swimming Wolf and Stargazer at 3pm.

Attendees:
Big Oak and Little Acorn
Red Feather and Sly Fox
Swimming Wolf and Stargazer
Fuzzy Pup and Prancing Coyote
Falling Leaf and Singing Flower
Big Bear and Tiger Lily. 

Stargazer opened the meeting by with 12 beats of the tribal tom-tom.
All big Braves and little princesses then joined to form the unbroken
circle and chanted the pledge and aims in unison.  

Chief Swimming Wolf went over the new totems that will be earned this year
through service projects.

The tribe agreed on participating in Operation Christmas Child as a
service project entailing putting together shoeboxes of necessities for
families in need. This project will be put together at the November meeting.

We then passed the talking stick around so each princess could give a report
of how they earned their Wampum.

Little Acorn earned a Totem for community service at a soup kitchen at her
church with Big Oak.

We also agreed to attend the Carolina Hurricanes game on November 17 as a
tribe and to sit in the lower bowl of the arena.

The princesses then made their own cupcakes as a craft and ate them as a
refreshment.

The Crazy Eights ended the meeting with the closing prayer.
