Steele Indian School Park

this year? Where is it going? What's happening? So we wanted to put it in a different location just because we know sometimes it's hard to drive across town just for a battery drop off.

Last year, we were in Steel Indian School Park, had a great reception.

And just like you said, people have told us so many times that they want events like these.

And when we're on social media and talking about proper ways to dispose of hazardous waste like batteries, people say, when are you doing your next one? And so we're happy to have another one.

So the parade itself starts at 9 a.m., and the route is going to start on 3rd Street and Virginia in downtown, right where Patina Wellness Center is.

And then we will move north to Steele Indian School Park, which is 3rd Street and Indian School.

So that is the parade route right there.

And if you want to actually see that, too, what the parade route looks like, you can look at our website, too.

So for people that have never attended that or been there, what is that?

It's interesting because sometimes I meet people who've lived in Phoenix their whole life and they've never actually knew about the Phoenix Indian School boarding school that was there over on Indian School and Central.

It's at the Steele Indian School Park and a little history.

The boarding school itself for Phoenix has been there from 1891 until 1990.

And they will talk about their experiences.

And then we're going to ask the group to drive over to Steele Indian School Park.

And we're going to have a rare look inside Memorial Hall.

And that's actually where we're going to be serving lunch there.

we have uh seating for 125 people it's not that many because this is this is

an important

topic it's very important and i think anyone who has any interest in this history or maybe you're hearing this and you're saying what are they talking about come find out because this history is not taught in our schools so this is a really rare chance to learn about it but also hear again from people who lived the experience And so, yes, we are hosting it at the Heard Museum and then we'll be at the Memorial Hall at Steele Indian School Park and the Phoenix Indian School Visitor Center.

Okay.
