As we celebrate Native American Heritage Month, may this flag serve as a daily reminder of the Tribe’s enduring connection to this land, its ongoing presence in our community, and the continuing impact of its invaluable contributions to our region.

Today, Elk Grove and Wilton Rancheria made history, raising the Tribe’s flag at City Hall—a symbol of partnership, respect, and heritage.
