Flatwater Group team members recently volunteered at Whirling Thunder Wellness Program's Wilderness Walk/Run.   It was a great opportunity to be a part of this annual event promoting wellness in the community during the 159th Winnebago Homecoming Celebration.

Meet Shondeen Long! Shaúndíín or Shondeen (Shawn-deen) is part Hocak and Dine (Navajo). Her legal name means morning sunlight (morning blessings with sunlight). She is part of the bear clan and her Hocak name is Nąącgepįįwįnga (Good heart woman). She also has a Diné name that is Asdzaan bahazonii (Friendly/Happy Woman). She is on the pre-law route and is majoring in Political Science with minors in Philosophy and Native American Studies at the University of Nebraska at Omaha.   This summer, Shondeen interned with Flatwater Group where she supported federal contracting projects and gained hands-on experience with procurement regulations, contract execution, and the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). The internship deepened her understanding of how Native-owned businesses engage in federal contracting and sparked a strong interest in pursuing a career in this field.

We had a great time at the Coalition for Common Sense in Government Procurement’s Spring Training Conference.   This two-day event focused on government wide and healthcare procurement challenges, diving into current developments in the federal procurement.   #CPGSpring2025
