Dance of the Two Moons 2011

Once again, the Dance of the Two Moons made history by raising over $125,000. The Dance of the Two Moons was held on Saturday, April 16 at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. The Dance of the Two Moons is the annual pediatric fundraising event of Indian Health Care Resource Center of Tulsa.

This year, the funds are helping support our summer wellness camps and pediatric programs. Our summer camps enable 400 Native American children to attend one of IHCRC’s summer wellness camps at no cost. These camps provide a full schedule of team building, exercise and nutrition education activities for Native children.

This past fiscal year, IHCRC provided over 3,000 children with over 10,100 health care visits! Without the services of IHCRC many of these children would have no medical home and end up in our emergency rooms for health care services.

The Dance of the Two Moons featured an entertaining and enjoyable evening of activities. The event began with a silent auction, the extraordinary talents of the Tulsa Juggling Club and a Live Art showing by Bunky Echo-Hawk. Next, the crowd was entertained with the talents of live Auctioneer Jay Litchfield while they enjoyed an exceptional dinner. As has been our recent custom, the Fabulous Mid-Life Crisis Band kept the party lively and our guests dancing.
