MONTHLY MINUTES
July 4, 2012

American Indian Warriors Association Meeting of July 4, 2012 was called to order at 7:05 pm by AIWA President William Buchanan.

William B. took charge of the meeting and introduced new member Brian J. McMillion, USAR, Cocopah. Also attending is Juan Del Rio and Roy Cook.

William brought in examples of the new AIWA patch. Very impressive and it will be look fine on the new vests under construction by Joaquin Sandoval.

This is to be a ‘business’ meeting without snacks or potluck tonight. We did have some discussion items to stimulate dialogue and a very busy past month of activities to review and also discuss. Juan del Rio was able to put us on the internet and as such we had access to our AIWA events page to view and review past activities.

William also asked for Tee shirt sizes for a future meetings reference.

Our Veterans topics were free ranging, yet still in keeping with the spirit of this AIWA American Indian military veteran’s organizations general interests.
1. Stolen Valor.
2. Rededication of the VA medicine wheel.
3. Herbal medicine and health issues.

The final meeting activity was set aside this Fourth of July. In practice the Round Robin, encourages our Veterans to bring out issues and emotions in a supportive, compassionate, environment. Our goal is that participation will further the healing process and bring us all back into balance again.

AIWA welcomes positive ideas for the month of August 1, 2012.
Meeting adjourned at 8:15pm.

Respectfully submitted:
Roy Cook, AIWA Historian/secretary
