Flying Eagle Boy
This seven-year-old boy danced in traditional Indian clothing tonight for the team as part of a very heart-felt celebration honoring our time bringing the gift of sight in Montana.
This boy's mother and grandmother both graciously volunteered all week in the clinic for our OneSight Regional Clinic here.
Flying Eagle Boy's father is currently serving in Iraq. He danced to honor not only him and his family tonight, but the team as well.

Picking Flowers
Pictured on the left, two children pick flowers during recess in Montana not far from the Canadian border.
Although, their school year is almost complete during our clinic week, we are able to serve the community at the Red Whip Community Center in Ft. Belknap, Montana.
Everyone is enjoying the flowers along the way...
Cowboys Love Glasses!

This woman is a Hutterite and lives in a colony in Harlem, Montana. Her community members perfrom various work tasks like farming, cooking, and sewing all of which are made easier with the gift of sight.
