Siyo! The bracket is officially set, and we want to invite everyone out to the 2026 Social Stickball Tournament next Saturday, October 17th, at Markoma Stickball Field!

We are looking forward to a great day of stickball, laughter, community, and connection! We will have free food, cake walks, prevention resources, vendors, and a youth stickball game! There will be something for everyone, so bring the family and come enjoy the day with us!

I also want to give a big shout-out to our amazing tournament committee for all their hard work putting this event together! Amber Walker, Brian Barlow, Chad Hayes, JJ Cunningham, Lily Drywater, Rachel Bearpaw, Sarah Bearpaw-Hayes, and Shadow Hardbarger! Wado to each of you for your time, energy, and dedication! Also, Wado to Candessa Tehee & Cherokee Nation Behavioral Health Prevention for their support!

The goal of this tournament is about is about promoting a culture of wellness for the next seven generations. We want our youth to grow up knowing they are loved, accepted, supported, and that they belong. We also want to celebrate the protective factors found within our traditional culture, including connection, laughter, physical activity, community, and looking out for one another.

Our ancestors understood that wellness was about more than treating illness. It was about creating communities where people could thrive, and that's the kind of culture we want to continue building!

It's going to be a great day, and we hope to see everyone there!

Promoting a Culture of Wellness for the Next Seven Generations!

Wado!
