 The Northwest Indian Community Development Center had more than just one reason to celebrate today in Bemidji. The center held its first ever GED graduation ceremony and marked the special occasion by hosting the ceremony in their new building. Seven students earned their degrees and five of them took part in the graduation ceremony. The ceremony was put together to celebrate each graduate's success and accomplishments. We just can keep continuing to build and build and grow within our community and so now that we are out there we really want to just show our members and our students that every success they have is reason to celebrate and so we really are just here to honor them tonight. The first ever graduation ceremony concluded with a meal and a special graduation cake.
