Due to the weather, the Sault Tribe Board of Directors meeting and workshop and meeting scheduled for today, Feb. 18, has been canceled. The meeting will be held on Monday, Feb. 24, 2020.

We are excited to invite you to our meeting on Wednesday, Feb. 19, at 6 p.m. at the Avery Square conference room, on the second floor (elevators available) in Sault Ste. Marie. Representatives from the newly established Misdemeanor Sobriety Court of Chippewa County explain what it is, who is eligible and, most importantly, how it attempts to get help for people who, due to problems they have had with the legal system involving substance use, can get life back on track. This, of course, leads to fewer problems for the individuals, their families and the community.

Please come learn about the Sobriety Court and spread the word. This can be a huge positive influence on those just needing a bit of direction and compassion when things start to head down a wrong path.
