Family Day 2023 in Coushatta, La.

Nahwee! Natchitoches Tribal Family,

Please join us in celebrating who we are, our ancestral history, and kinship with one another. The event will be an opportunity to not only connect with relatives and long lost relations, but it will also be an opportunity to meet our Natchitoches Tribal Leadership and to learn more about the future direction of the Tribe from Chief Fred Simon and our Council Chiefs.

Please note: The Natchitoches Tribe of Louisiana Family Day is only open to registered members of the Tribe and their immediate family.

Accommodations are available at the Lodge, also RV parking, or cabin rentals. Additional lodging arrangements are being coordinated.

We look forward to seeing you in November!
