where 500-600 people celebrate diversity, and showcase the culture of a
single country, or group of countries. American Indians are hosting
the Diplomatic Ball this year, and it’s going to be a wonderful event:
Haskell Color Guard dancing in the flags; Terri Whetstone playing flute
during dinner; Buffalo and Salmon for dinner; Moses Brings Plenty as
the Emcee; American Indian dancers for the cultural entertainment; and
XParte as the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Rock & Roll</span></i> dance band. It’s at the Sheraton (previously the Hyatt Regency), and parking is free. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt;">American
Indians are hosting the Ethnic Ball this year at the Sheraton Hotel and
it is going to be a wonderful event. Your invitation is attached. I
will send you the menu in a follow up message. The Sheraton is the old
Hyatt by Crown Center, and parking is free in the garage on the North
side of the hotel entrance.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "Tahoma","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Tickets
are $70 per person, which is actually reasonable when you consider the
meal and the rest of the event. American Indians have already purchased
6 tables for a total of 60 people. We are hoping to fill 4 more
tables. The total headcount for the Ball should be between 600 and 800
people – representing more than 50 countries. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

good seating, please mail them ASAP. The deadline for late reservations
