Highway 2 Motorcycle Track Days on Horse Thief Mile, Willow Springs International Raceway Motorcycle technical skills events with emphasis on control, turning, braking and managing a motorcycle in canyon conditions. This program began in December 2019 as a response to the high accident rate and death toll on the Angeles Crest Highway, which is the main artery through the Angeles National Forest, where Redbird owns and operates the Chilao School property. The program involves relatively high risk and a high expense ratio, but it also has great potential rewards. We are directly influencing how people ride motorcycles and helping them improve their chances of responding appropriately in an emergency situation. 12000 12000 Chilao School, environmental, arts, healing arts and life skills programs In 2021 we continued programs at the school with much-reduced attendance due to Covid, utilizing outdoor spaces whenever possible. We did a number of renovations to the school itself, including the restoration of electricity after a fallen tree had destroyed our power pole; new interior lighting, the addition of an electric vehicle charging station, extensive grading to the adjacent property after a firebreak was created during the Bobcat fire, and several "hardening" exterior upgrades to improve fire safety in the event of the next wildfire. 0 0 Redbird's 26th annual Blanket Drive and Mini Powwow December 4, 2022 A family style one day Native American social and spiritual gathering, inviting the public to contribute to a blanket drive for the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation of South Dakota. The 2021 event was extremely well attended and the end result was four truckloads of donations. Used items were distributed locally and new blankets and winter clothing items were shipped via USPS to the White Plume Family for distribution to needy families throughout the reservation's most remote regions. This was probably our most successful drive in the 26 year history of the event. 1200 1450 Children of Many Colors Native American Powwow, returning in 2022 after a two year hiatus due to he Coronavirus pandemic.

A five mile portion of the road remains closed and our property is only accessible via a detour over another road. Therefore, our entire operating season at our venue, Chilao School, was cancelled in 2023. All of the programs that we normally host at the school were cancelled. This inability to perform services resulted in a decline in our gross income, and we may continue to see reduced income as the property remains accessible only by a rather long and complicated detour. RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 20 Road closures due to storm damage prevented us from using our facility, Chilao School, throughout 2023 and was the primary factor affecting a disparity in income from previous years.
