Nil Da Daguute'? Shi Shil Guuzhu!

Hello everyone, My name is Talia Randolph I am your current Miss Mescalero Apache XXXVII here is an update on things I have been doing and places I have been for the month of August. On August 1, 2016 I met Eric Johnson Jr. at the Inn of the Mountain Gods. He said he was vis- iting from Globe, and was asked to preach at the Assembly of God Church for a cou- ple of days. We shared information about each other and before he left he said a prayer that really touched my heart. It's amazing how something so simple could make you feel so good. On August 5, 2016 the Mescalero Apache Boys & Girls Club asked me to say an open- ing prayer at their Back To School Bash. The eventful day consisted of registration, face painting, a cupcake walk, games, horse painting and refreshments. I think it was a prefect way to start out the new year for our youth. I am definitely looking forward to the new improvements this organization has made. The Boys & Girls Club of America has a purpose that states "Club programs and services promote and en- hance the development of boys and girls by instilling absence of competence, use- fulness, belonging and influence" it's our job as leaders, community workers and adults to fulfill this purpose. It should be an after school program where kids can enjoy themselves after a long day of studying and other extracurricular activities. On August 7, 2016 I participated in the Old Lincoln Days Parade in Lincoln, where I received 1st place. Since 1937 is has been a State Monument that attracts many tourist because of its prehistoric structures that extend for about 10 miles. The weekend consists of a folk pageant centering around the life of the legendary outlaw Billy The Kid, a parade and vendors. August 11-15, 2016 I traveled to Gallup, New Mexico for the 95th Annual Gallup Inter Tribal Ceremonial. I was so determined to attend because I heard so much about it and a lot of my royalty family was going to be there and I knew it was going to be my last time seeing them as Miss Mescalero. I took part in their annual parade which was a lot of fun. It wasn't like any other traditional parade, there were no motorized vehicles allowed, no throwing of candy and all partici- pates had to be dressed in traditional clothing which I thought Apache Scout Volume 1.16, Issue 09 Page 9

was very unique and appropriate. I also danced and watched the crowing of the new Miss Gallup Intertribal 2016-2017. I really enjoyed the night performances because tribes from all over New Mexico and even Ari- zona performed, some included the White Mountain Apache Crown Dancers, The Dancers, the Az- teca Dancers, Zuni, Olah Maidens and the Navajo Dancers. On August 18, 2016 I attended the Miss Mescalero Luncheon held at the Inn of the Mountain Gods. This gathering included myself, guest speakers the Miss Mescalero Committee and previous title holders. It was nice to hear about experiences from the first, second and third Miss Mescalero's, the women who began our sisterhood. We have all shared a few of the same struggles, excitement and adventures some in a more different way than others but we have all definitely been in the same shoes. Being Miss Mescalero is a huge honor but a lot more comes with it than just the crown and sash. It takes a lot of time, hard work, responsibil- ity and dedication. Not that I'm complaining or any- thing it's just people from the outside don't really un- derstand everything we have to deal with both the good and bad. You can't just be an ambassador when ever you want it's a 24 hour 7 days a week responsibility. I lost count of the many nights I would stay out at a feast, dance all night until 1 or later and be at work by 8:30 the next morning. But with the support of my family especially my grandparents I was able to pull threw. Holding the title as Miss Mesca- lero affected my life in a positive way more ways than one. Personally it made me a better person, got me closer with my family, helped me learn more about our culture, but most importantly I made a difference in our community. Yes I'm sad my reign is coming to an end but I'm excited to see what the future title holder is able to accomplish. It truly is a great privilege to not only represent yourself & your family but the entire Mescalero Apache Tribe. Many Blessing to the Mescalero Apache Tribe!
