This calendar stick was made to commemorate the Arizona Water Settlements Act that settled Gila River Indian Community water rights claims and returned water to the community. It is made out of saguaro cactus rib by the artist Aaron Sabori who is a member of GRIC from the village of Santa Cruz District 6. 

GRIC Governor Stephen Lewis presented this calendar stick to the WRRC Director Dr. Sharon B. Megdal and conference Co-chairs, Dr. Karletta Chief and Dr. Jean McLain, at the close of the conference.
