Good Afternoon,

Bad River Summer Youth is offering Lawn and Garden Services again this year!

Please reach out to our Summer Youth Team Leader Justice Ford with any questions.

If you have any other Summer Youth question, please feel free to reach out to Justice as well.

Thank you!

We’re really excited to announce our strawberry U-Pick is open starting tomorrow/Friday through Sunday. 

After this week, we will be open Thursday through Sundays for U-Pick throughout June and probably into July. It’s all self-serve and free. We just ask that you record how much you take on our clipboard and using our scale to measure pounds (we get paid through a grant for the berries). 

They’re really delicious and we’re excited to share them with you!

I know many are excited to come pick so we are setting a limit of one gallon bucket per household (we may lift this), but just in the beginning so that these berries can reach more families. 

Community Safety is at the forefront for Bad River Tribal Leadership and Administration and is the guiding force in decision making.  Attached is a memo with further information about the safety of the Old Head Start building.    

At this time, the Old Head Start is closed out of an abundance of caution, following initial environmental tests revealed a room with unsafe (needing remediation) methamphetamine levels.  Please review the attached memo and reach out to Tribal Administration, BRHWC (Community Health Dept) or Public Safety with further questions or concerns. 

We will provide further information as it becomes available following further testing and any remediation/re-testing that may occur.
