Maria Ramirez has been riding with the Big Foot Band Memorial Riders for the past 3 years.  Maria’s daughter Oheyesa was the youngest rider to complete the ride a few years ago when she was just six years old!  Maria and her daughter now travel together on the ride as one of many family groups who are joining the ride each year.  Maria works at the Waldorf School on the Pine Ridge Reservation and will be starting training soon to become a Waldorf Teacher.
