Exercise in Quarantine
One of the main constants during shut down has been the ability to still work out. My barre studio has gone above and beyond, converting their in class studios to daily virtual classes over zoom and continually checking in making challenges to motivate everyone to continue to stay healthy, even at home. My daily barre class has become an important part of my day, where I don’t think about work responsibilities, parenting, the state of the world or anything else that can become overwhelming.

Coronavirus Piñata
For my son’s drive-by birthday, we wanted something fun for people to do as they drove by, but without exiting their cars. We decided it would be fun to have people try to “beat the virus,” so I made a Coronavirus piñata. After the birthday parade, the birthday boy and his big sister finished it off. To keep any guests from thinking it was a traditional piñata, with candies and prizes inside, I made sure everyone knew that the piñata was where I put some of his birthday presents (in this case, legos). -

Ponca Tribal Chairman Addresses the Challenges of Offering Services to a Geographically Unique Community
“As our people become more and more inundated with news and updates on the Covid19 virus, I’m sure many of you are concerned of the unknown and what’s next. As far as it relates to our tribal nation, Tribal Council and staff have been addressing this situation for some time… Added to our concerns in this time of uncertainty is the fact that our tribal service delivery areas are spread out over 15 counties in 3 states. We have several unique areas spread across these areas. All need the unique attention they deserve. Our staff is working with all 3 state health organizations and all counties that our service delivery areas are in…While we are doing everything we can to help at this time, your understanding is asked for in knowing that we just may not be able to prevent occurrences from happening. Again, we will remain committed to protecting our people the absolute best that we can.”
