Several steps have been taken to generate public interest in the Mackinac Bands. The results have been, for the most part, positive. Enrollment has been steadily increasing with many members of the Sault Tribe requesting affirmation of their membership in the Mackinac Bands.
A growing stream of business developers along with the occasional philanthropist have communicated their interest in the MB. All the ingredients required for potential success are coming together. Invitations to become involved in large community projects, including outside the Indian community, are becoming more frequent.
Several Sault Tribe members who were employed and acted under certain authority for the ST, who are not eligible for membership in the MB, are giving the thumbs up along with several bits of advice.
Suggestions of a Mo
bile Health Unit are high on the priority list for the MB Board of Directors since the Sault Tribe does not provide convenient health services for members beyond the voting units in the Upper Peninsula. Members that are too ill to travel could benefit from the option of a Mobile Health Unit.
Jobs,especially in 'Green' technology, education and a diversified portfolio of business development all hold an equal level of priority on the MB agenda.
In order to achieve the MB's maximum potential at a faster rate and to further the best interest of all members, it would be beneficial if all like-minded groups who feel they are representing smaller bands of the original MB, could come together as one.
The Mackinac Bands are always searching for professional advice from talented members so if you are interested, don't hesitate to contact me....
