The Colorado River Indian Tribes (CRIT) celebrated with their elders in style at the annual Easter Elders Luncheon, held in the Bluewater Resort & Casino’s showroom. The event brought together tribal elders, leaders, and community members.
The luncheon served as an opportunity to honor the elders’ lifelong contributions to preserving CRIT’s culture, traditions, and values. Tribal leaders took time to express their deep appreciation, reminding everyone of the elders’ vital role in guiding the community forward.
This year’s gathering also featured special activities, CRIT Royalty, a prayer blessing, and gifts.
The Easter Elders Luncheon is an annual tradition, reinforcing the bonds between generations. CRIT extends its deepest thanks to all who helped organize, volunteer, and support this special day. The Parker Church of the Nazarene church choir sang at the event.
Departments in attendance included CRIT Behavioral Health, CRIT Food Distribution, Parker Walk in Clinic, CRIT Special Diabetes Program, Indian Health Services, and CRIT Human Resources.
Council members in attendance included Chairwoman Amelia Flores, Council Members Vanessa Welch, Anisa Patch, Raeanne Patch, and Tommy Drennan.
