In the fall of 2025, we were awarded a catalyst grant through the Wisconsin Conference Church of Christ. We will be using this three-year grant to 1) celebrate our partnership with the Lac Du Flambeau tribe by hosting a "Confluence of Communities" on August 8, 2026 at Freedom Park, 2) develop a partnership with the Prairie Island Dakota Tribe and establish programming efforts with them, and 3) create a Fishing Tales event series, which will highlight indigenous authors and their community's connection to fishing.
