Welcome to Lac du Flambeau! |
||
| Boozhoo! Hello! (Anishinaabemowen or Ojibwe language) ~ More Words | ||
We would like to invite you to experience the Lac du Flambeau heritage by sampling our succulent organic strawberries from the Golden Eagle Farm, find comfort in the traditionally harvested wild rice, and you can’t forget the mouthwatering Fry Bread. Walk the paths that our Ojibwe ancestors did, see how they built their homes, tools and the games they played. Shop at Adaawe Place, our new shopping district, and see the crafts and art that has been taught to generations. Take a break on the ample park benches throughout downtown where you can sit back and “Refresh Your Spirit”. Wild Ricing Video (YouTube) |

Immerse yourself in the Ojibwe culture at the George W. Brown Jr., Museum and Cultural Center or Waswagoning Indian Village through classes, tours and displays. The rich history of the land and our people is what makes Lac du Flambeau “Truly a Place to Refresh Your Spirit!

Pow Wow's in Downtown Lac du Flambeau July 29 + August 5,12,19,26 SEE YOU THERE!!!! 7:00 PM Under 6 free, Adults=$9, 6 to 12 =$7, Seniors=$5 My wife, two kids (ages 7 and 9) and I are yearly summer visitors to the area and we attended the Pow Wow last Thursday night. It was absolutely fabulous! I can't express enough to the organizers and creators of the event just how much we enjoyed it, learned from it, and appreciated the opportunity to be a part of it through the inter-tribal participation. The Pow Wow is a wonderful tradition and celebration for all. Last year we very much enjoyed the experience of the village at Waswagoning. This year the highlight of our trip was the Pow Wow. We much appreciate the energy and enthusiasm of the dancers, the chanters, the drummers as well as the effort of the organizers to bring the Pow Wow back to life. Your contributions to keeping the Native American traditions alive are worthwhile and appreciated. If we visit again next year, we'll be back for sure. Sincerely, Bob Ray |
