Alexis Nakota Sioux Nation Recreation Plan Approved

Congratulations to the ACE Recreation Advisory Circle in the Alexis Nakota Sioux Nation! We have just received news that their proposed ‘Recreation Master Plan’ has now been approved by the Band Council.

The ACE Recreation Advisory Circle began their journey with the Recreation Plan last year. This process started with a survey that went out to the general community about the recreation services and programming on the reserve. The survey was then followed by a strategic planning session in February facilitated by their ACE Coach.

Out of this session came a 5 yr plan designed by community members themselves for their own community. This plan extended past competitive sports to look at other recreational priorities in the community like parks, facilities, programs, outdoor activities like walking trails and cultural activities.

Great work, Alexis Nakota Sioux! We can’t wait to see what the future will bring.
