National Native American Heritage Month celebrates the traditions, languages and stories of people who stood on the land before us. Aaron Meeden, our National President, proudly represents his Native American heritage. We were deeply honored to welcome some of his family to our installation ceremony in June, where they graciously shared their culture with us all.

During a week where food brings people together, here are three foods with Native American origins that you may have enjoyed without realizing their cultural significance:

Frybread - Native Americans developed this delicious bread out of necessity. Unable to obtain traditional foods such as beans, corn, and wild rice, Native Americans utilized the foods made available to them by the government. Try frybread sprinkled with powdered sugar, cinnamon, or honey. Another way to enjoy fry bread is an Indian Taco, topped with ground beef, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese.

Wild Rice - Unlike white rice, wild rice is native to North America and was a staple food for indigenous people. Today it’s still served in various dishes, including soups or combined with mushrooms, nuts, berries, and herbs.

Succotash - This stew usually contains corn, squash, and beans and dates back to the 17th century. While recipes evolved, they include these primary three ingredients. The result is a hearty, flavorful stew packed with nutrients.

Continuing the story of how Active 20-30 International came to be....

Between 1959 and 1960, meetings were held between the two groups, culminating in the proposed Constitution and Resolution to be presented to the 1960 Conventions of each organization. In addition to Morrison and Helling, Jack Kummert, Doug Martin and Clint McClure of 20-30, and Victory W. "Bill" Smith, Owen Barnes and Jim Robertson of Active participated in the early negotiations.

In 1960, the 20-30 International Convention was held in Santa Cruz, California. The delegates unanimously adopted the merger proposal and the Constitution. One month later, the delegates at the Active International Convention in Calgary, Alberta, also unanimously adopted the propositions. Therefore, on August 1, 1960, Active International and 20-30 International became the Active 20-30 International. While the mechanics of the merger were being formulated, each organization maintained its separate administrative structure, officers and national office through its convention year. In October 1960, the first combined magazine, Active 20-30 made its appearance.

The first convention of Active 20-30 International was held in Tucson, Arizona, July 10-14, 1961, where the constitution and bylaws were officially adopted. The major international projects selected for the new organization were Keys in the Car, Aid to Scouting, public speaking and Rheumatic Fever.

During the 1975 Convention, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, the new International Charity Foundation was adopted to replace Rheumatic Fever.

We have grown to establish clubs (chapters) beyond the United States and into Columbia, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Panama!

Active 20-30 International had its beginnings in 1922 when young men in two widely separated communities of the United States saw the need for a service club for young men. They found that established service clubs were dominated by older men, run by older men, and whose officers were invariably much older men.

This realization led those groups of ambitious young men to stray away from existing groups and organized a club of their own. These clubs shared the ideal that young men would have a chance to engage actively in service to their communities; where young ideas, backed by enthusiasm and the energy of youth, could share in civic responsibilities on an equal basis with clubs composed of older men.

These pioneers of young men's service clubs simultaneously created two virtually identical clubs: "Active International", located in Aberdeen, Washington, and "20-30 International" formed in Sacramento, California.

Stay tuned for more of our history!
