Has anyone had any experience with drones? I've had conversations with several people in the community who have had drones looking in their windows at night and flying over their property frequently. Has anyone else experienced this? Please let us know!

Recently, the basket weaving class has been temporarily shut down due to a lack of participation. We hope to revive this important tradition and encourage our youth to get involved when it starts up again. Let's work together to preserve our cultural heritage.
hopefully classes will resume after the first of the year. I will update as information becomes available.
basket class will resume January 26th!
Hope to see lots of you there.
Living down river makes it difficult to do laundry unless you own your own machines. Most residents do not have their own machines. The nearest laundry facility is 31 miles away, which is nearly an hour and a half drive or more.For several years, the community has been requesting functional washers and dryers.There are two washers and two dryers. Only one dryer works and one washer works with a makeshift fix are currently available for use.
We are just getting up and running.We hope to get all the latest happenings on the reservation and have all that information right here for our readers.
