On this Chief Red Wing and Indigenous People’s Day, we express our gratitude to Treasure Island Resort & Casino for being selected charity of the month in April. The casino and its guests raised and generously contributed $27,000 to further our stewardship of Red Wing’s bluffs. We honor them by involving volunteers in the stewardship of He Mni Can-Barn Bluff, Sorin’s Bluff (Memorial Park), and the Billings-Tomfohr Conservation Area.
