If
you live in the southwestern US just take a look out of your window
or pick up the local newspaper and see the obvious signs of a region
devastated by drought. Even the national parks and forests are facing
complete closure due to drought conditions causing fire dangers. Now imagine that your main source of food comes from the parched earth of our surrounding desert environment. This is the situation the Tarahumara's face. During
their most recent dance
tours, the Tarahumara's raised significant funds to help
purchase a major food delivery this July, August and October in anticipation
of a possible crisis like this. There are planned to be at least one, and possibly two deliveries to five villages in July, August and October this year. Any help you can provide in this midyear effort would be greatly appreciated and we will forward thorough documentation of the results of this effort.

Expeditions Matachine Dance Tour March 2003 Past tours provided a great success in being able to purchase food. There was also an excellent response from some of our new sponsors in Pheonix, Prescott, Sodona and Tucson. The public really showed enthusiasm for the program so we hope to do it again next year. We are looking for sponsors again in Phoenix, Prescott, Sodona, Tucson and Silver City. If you have any ideas about potential sponsors, please contact us as soon as possible. Prior planning is critical to the success of this project. To contact us directly
