Meetings and ceremonies were held in Anchorage during the 2017 Fur Rondy Winter Festival over a week and a half. After much prayer and discussion, holding council with Alaska Native Elders, youth, veteran sundancers, and several Alaska Native spiritual leaders and wellness community members, it became clear that now is the time to move forward with planning for the sacred Sundance ceremony. The ceremony is currently scheduled for August, 2021. Lakota spiritual leaders agreed and committed to helping and guiding the process.
