operating a program to award academic scholarships to Native American students in
the geographic area of Northwestern Oklahoma for the purpose of furthering their
post high school education. All profits generated from this event will be
donated to the Keeper of the Plains Scholarship Fund. The recipients of the
scholarships will be announced during the celebration on Saturday evening, April
