SIOUAN CONFERENCE 2011

[Jimm GoodTracks]

Yes, Bob!  It is not necessary to go that far West to connect to tribal complex. The Eagle Nest Motel (behind the Squaw Creek Truck Stop and Restaurant) is on I-29 (in Missouri State).  On I-29, take exit Rulo (Nebraska) Exit 79 (5 miles south of Mound City) then #159 west, across the Missouri River bridge into to Rulo Nebraska.

Taking #7 south until you see the sun sign of Casino White Cloud.  The Iowa Tribal complex is before you actually arrive at the Casino.  Approximately 20 miles from the Tribe's Eagle Nest Motel facility to the Tribal Complex , then the Casino and tribal auxiliary buildings (Sr. meal site; Clinic; PD offices; rodeo grounds, etc.)

It is also likely that this is the same route that you had in mind.  However, Fall City is another 20 miles West of Rulo, NE.

That's great news, Jimm.  

Is there a bridge from MO to KS near there?  The one I know about is up at Falls City, NE, which would make this the first tri-state Siouan Conference.
