Navajo Nation chapter dedicates new building
The San Juan Chapter of the Navajo Nation dedicated a new building on Wednesday.

The 10,000 square-foot building in New Mexico cost $1.7 million, making it one of the most expensive on the reservation. "It's nice to have a facility that puts us in the mainstream with other, larger chapters," said chapter president Wibert Begay, The Farmington Daily Times reported.

The chapter broke ground on the facility in 1999 but lack of funding delayed construction.
