The Community -

Lame Deer, MontanaLame Deer is between Broadus and Hardin on Deer Creek and the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation. Lame Deer is the tribal and government agency headquarters for the Reservation. The St. Labre Mission and Cheyenne Indian Museum feature Plains Indian Artifacts and a documentary film on the Saint Labre school. The premier event of the Northern Cheyenne is the annual Fourth of July Celebration in Lame Deer, the largest pow-wow held in the reservation. Surrounded by historical locations Lame Deer is anything but lame; nearby we have Ashland City, a division headquarters for the Custer Gallatin National Forest. A historical buffalo jump, burial sites of Indian chiefs, Custer's last camp before the Battle of Little Bighorn, the Cheyenne Indian Museum, Ten Bears Galley, Saint Labre Indian School, and the Ashland Powwow are of special interest here.
