Cherokee Nation Remember the Removal Bike Riders will stop and spend the night at Rocky Mountain School on Wednesday, June 19th. They are expected to arrive at school at approximately 4:00 PM. We would like to invite the community to come Wednesday and help extend a “welcome home” to the riders prior to their homecoming in Tahlequah the following morning.
Once they are finished, they will have logged approx 950 miles that the ancestors traveled during The Trail of Tears. This year marks the 35th Anniversary of the Remember the Removal Bike Ride. Rocky Mountain’s own Marie Eubanks is participating this year as one of the mentor riders. She has ridden a strong ride and is looking forward to sharing her experience and knowledge of history with others.
Make plans Wednesday to be at the school early to welcome the riders and plan to stay a while for a casual afternoon to visit, take pictures, learn what it takes to participate on future rides and show encouragement to the riders.
Students who signed up with Mrs. Avila and Mrs. Goldman should report tomorrow. The hours for the camp are from 8-2 M-Th. Transportation breakfast and lunch are provided. We are needing magazines (sports, better home and garden etc )for camp.

Today’s game taught patience, perseverance, and persistence!! Going into the 4th quarter, the score was 0-0. Jennings scored a touchdown. Our boys had the choice of becoming disheartened and downtrodden or rally together and do the job that they have practiced each day with Coach Page.
They chose to rally, drive down the field and score not only a touchdown to tie the score, but pushed through to seal the game with the 2 point conversion with 1:10 left on the clock.
Good job to Jennings. Congratulations on a great season. Thank you for teaching us lessons and testing our endurance.
Our students/school is blessed to have awesome students! From athletes, to cheerleaders, to water girls, to those that support from the sideline - they are some of the best!!
Thank you always to our parents, families and fans for your great support and encouragement of the RM students and athletes.
