The Sault Tribe website contains very little up to date information.The meetings are no longer videotaped or televised.
It is understandable that they would not want to be televised so that the non-Indian community can no longer watch this disaster in action but with no current meeting minutes or resolutions on the website, tribal members are left in the dark about the state of their own tribe.
I am offering to video tape the meeting for free and post them on the web, on a different note I could also video conference the meeting with my web cam and my laptop so the members could tune in live to watch the meeting and you can do it all for free on the internet.
64 percent tribal members live outside the service area and they would like to know what is happening?
With so much secrecy, will the majority of the members suddenly find out some day that the Sault Tribe disappeared.
Check out the not so current Sault Tribe download section for yourself no more Meeting Minutes, Resolutions, workshops, Board Videos posted, Why?
From Feb 2005 --- Election Sept 9th 2008

There is no Board news posted on the Tribe's website because the Board fired the staff who were responsible for this task. And I believe that these terminations were designed to keep the members in the dark,and to do so with a real plausible excuse...no money ! A responsible Board who were concerned about fears and rumors among the members would work extra hard to keep the members informed of actions, progress in resolving problems, and remaining challenges. Not this Board. They do not care and most of all do not want any public scruting. DJ has shown us that !
By all means, the web cam sounds like a good solution. I for one would hate to see the Sault Tribe disappear. These video tapes should be archived so they can be accessed any time for those among us who may not be able to view a live transmission.
Thank you,
