Aya,

I hope this message finds all our people well and strong and looking forward to Summer. Since our last newsletter here are a couple of updates and a great announcement. First, our Annual General Council in March came together beautifully. I would like to thank all our tribal government and casino team members for preparing and hosting a well organized and informative gathering of our Citizens. We completed another election cycle, presented our Annual Report and then socially gathered that evening to meet new friends and strengthen relationships with others. Governmentally we continue to coordinate with the Department of Treasury to participate in the American Rescue Plan Act. As information is provided by Treasury it will be shared through both our social media page and our website. We continue to be proactive in this process and look forward to the implementation of it for our citizens.

We are thankful and excited to announce that this years Annual Pow Wow will be hosted at our beautiful grounds east of Miami. Like years past, we will gather with our inter-tribal family to celebrate, compete and honor one another. Please makes plans to join us and bring the whole family.

I look forward to seeing each and every one there.

As always, we remain PeoriaProud!

Be Well,

Craig Harper

Chief
