Native American Day

The Native American Day celebration at Crazy Horse each year includes a program, Native American singers, dancers, artists and storytellers. Another highlight of the day is hands-on activities for children, a free buffalo stew lunch for all visitors and a blast on the mountain (weather permitting.)

The Native American Day holiday was established by the South Dakota Legislature in 1989. This day is commonly referred to as Columbus Day in the rest of the country.

The 2009 celebration will be held Monday, October 12.
