Pine Ridge Study Tour - 2008

DeutchDeutsch

Village Earth and our community partners on the Pine Ridge Indian Reseration in South Dakota will be organizing a study tour June 7-14, 2008. See the sites and hear about the history, culture, and contemporary realities of Reservation life as told by local Lakota guides. Also, learn about and participate in Village Earth's projects across the reservation.

The price for this tour is $1,200 and includes 7 nights accomodation on the reservation, meals, transportation, and local guides. This does not include your travel to Rapid City, SD where we will meet June 7th.

We make every effort to ensure that as much of the proceeds as possible from this tour directly benefit the Lakota residents of Pine Ridge.
