CNCV Walks in Native American Heritage Month Parade

On Saturday, November 8th, the Cherokees of Northern Central Valley were honored to represent Cherokee Nation and our at-large community here as part of the second annual Native American Heritage Month Parade.

As a community of citizens living away from our reservation, it means a lot to us to come together to celebrate and show we are a living, vibrant culture. This is not just about remembering our history, but celebrating that we are thriving, contributing, and carrying our heritage forward for many generations to come. We’re proud to stand in unity with all the Native nations represented today!

Wado (thank you) to all the organizers, participants, and especially our wonderful members who came out today to make it extra special. We had an impressive turnout with so much joy and pride. Please mark your calendars to participate with us next year!
