🎃🍂 Frybread & Frights brought our community together for a fun-filled fall afternoon! Families came dressed in their best costumes, enjoyed delicious Indian tacos, played games, painted pumpkins, and joined in on the costume contest fun. 👻✨

Our youth from the Boys & Girls Club Media Team went around interviewing vendors and community members, capturing all the creativity and excitement from the day.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating the season together! Happy Halloween!!

Our culture is not a costume. It’s ceremony. It’s story. It’s love carried through generations. What we wear connects us to our ancestors, our families, and our communities.

When people turn our traditions into Halloween costumes, it strips away the meaning behind what we hold sacred.

This Halloween we invite our community to learn the difference between cultural appreciation and appropriation, because real respect means showing up for Native people, not imitating them.

This Halloween, let’s share more than candy.
Over 2 million children rely on SNAP just to eat each day. You can help by adding a few dry goods or healthy snacks to your treat baskets for families who could use the support:

🧀 Mac & cheese cups
🍜 Ramen packets
🥣 Instant oatmeal
🍪 Granola bars
🍎 Fruit cups & snacks
🥨 Pretzel packs
🐻 Animal crackers
🥣 Mini cereal boxes

Because caring for our community lasts longer than a sugar rush. 🧡
