Mikwendaagoziwag Ceremonies at Sandy Lake
Mikwendaagoziwag Ceremonies at Sandy Lake All are welcome to join GLIFWC in commemorating the 1850 Sandy Lake Tragedy on July 31st. It is a time to remember the sacrifices made by many tribal members who arrived at Sandy Lake to receive annuity payments, but found only inadequate and spoiled rations, delayed payments and for many, death. See GLIFWC’s Facebook page for maps, directions, and details.
Beware of Hitchhikers
Do your part in taking care of the resources that take care of us: don't allow aquatic invasive species to hitch a ride on boats and fishing gear while moving from lake to lake. 1854 Invasive Species Techs staff public boat accesses to offer voluntary boat inspections, and if necessary decontamination. Get a free boat wash with our decontamination unit - a high pressure, heated water sprayer.
