The Upper Sioux Community will expand in size to hold their traditional wacipi at the state park located 8 miles east of Granite Falls, MN on Hwy 67. Tipi rental is $25.00 a night for the tipi's at the state park but they reserve fast. The state park is has beautiful hiking trails. Cat fishing is great near this area.

Chris Mato Nunpa did a memorial for Dakota woman. The pow wow is August 3,4, and 5th.
