The Seminole Indian Scouts Cemetery Association

Picture
The Seminole Negro Indian Scout Cemetery Association is a non-profit organization in Brackettville, Texas, known for its history. The main goal of the organization is to maintain the cemetery, where our ancestors are buried, and to raise awareness about the Four Medal of Honor Recipients that have been laid to rest there. We also continue to restore and preserve the Historic Carver School Building and Grounds. This building was used by the black  Seminoles during segregation.  We strive to keep our legacy alive. Monthly meetings are held on the 2nd Saturday of each month. Planned activities and fundraisers  are held throughout  the year. We also celebrate Juneteenth the third weekend of June, and Seminole Days the third weekend of September.

"All I want, right now, is each day for one more person to learn our history. There is great power in one. This is what I always want, that one more person should know our story."
