LakotaRide 2020
 A RIDE OF RECONCILIATION
​RIDE ROUTE:

About the LakotaRide:

The 6th Annual LakotaRide- A Ride of Reconciliation- will begin at the Cherokee Ranch and Castle in Sedalia, Colorado on July 11th  and conclude over 400 miles later on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota on July 31st.

​​The purpose of the Ride, which is at the core of the Tipi Raisers' mission, is to bring Lakota and non-Lakota People together; to work, play, struggle, talk and of course, Ride! It is through experiences like this, and through the other activities that the Tipi Raisers facilitates, that we can begin to understand, heal and ultimately reconcile the trauma of America's complicated history with the Lakota people.​ The LakotaRide also serves as an important fundraiser to support our year-round, humanitarian projects on the reservation, the Gen7 Youth Leadership program as well as Native culture presentations- sharing indigenous wisdom- off the reservation. 

Please consider launching your own Peer to Peer Fundraiser and help us to make the greatest impact possible on Pine Ridge.
