Fort Phil Kearny State Historic Site is pleased to announce the first program of the summer from American Indian Student Interpretive Ranger, Noah Tsotigh. His program, “Connections of
Cultures: An Indigenous Perspective” will be held Thursday July 25th at 6pm at the fort and examines the way cultures have connected in the past, and how they’re still doing so today.

Tsotigh is a citizen of the Kiowa tribe from Oklahoma working at Fort Phil Kearny for the summer as part of the Student Interpretive Ranger program. Fort Phil Kearny State Historic Site and the Fort Phil Kearny/Bozeman Trail Association have partnered with the United States Forest Service to bring two American Indian students to share their cultural perspectives with the public at both the Fort and at Medicine Wheel/Medicine Mountain National Historic Landmark. This program has been made possible with funding support from the Wyoming Council for the Humanities.

This is the second presentation in its summer series and a free event. Weather depending, the
program will be held outside and visitors are asked to please bring lawn chairs.
Fort Phil Kearny State Historic Site is located at 528 Wagon Box Road, in Banner, Wyoming, and is a division of Wyoming State Parks and Cultural Resources. For more information or
