Geri Small has been named the chief professional officer of the Northern Cheyenne Boys & Girls Club. Small, a former president of the Northern Cheyenne Tribe, has been working with the club for more than a year. She hopes to provide leadership skills to a new generation of tribal members. "There's so much potential here at the club," Small told The Billings Gazette. About 100 kids attend the club every day. Small said her biggest challenge will be securing funding to keep the programs going. Get the Story:
