Clean water does not protect itself. Our environmental protection team works every day to monitor, preserve, and restore the watersheds and waterways on our Tribal lands, because the health of these waters is connected to the health of our community. It is work rooted in responsibility and a promise that extends to future generations.

🎣🌿 PCI Environmental Education Camp & Fishing Rodeo Inspires Nearly 200 Youth 🌿🎣

This week, PCI Environmental welcomed nearly 200 Boys & Girls Club youth to its annual Environmental Education Camp and Fishing Rodeo. Participants enjoyed hands-on learning experiences focused on conservation, wildlife, water resources, environmental stewardship, and outdoor recreation.

A special thank you goes to Barnie White, Manager of Environmental Health and Sustainability, who served as the driving force behind the event. Through his leadership and coordination, youth had the opportunity to learn from environmental professionals, interact with educational exhibits, and experience the excitement of fishing firsthand.

PCI Environmental remains committed to inspiring the next generation of environmental stewards and outdoor enthusiasts.

💙🌎🐟 Thank you to all staff, volunteers, partners, and supporters who helped make this event possible!
