The tribes are expecting
the arrival of the new mo­
bile clinic as soon as next

clinic serving the reservation
began about three years ago/
At the time, the community
was responding to the H1N1
flu outbreak. There was an
imminent need to serve el?:
ders and others in the outly­
ing communities,
Community health work-,
ers began the grant process,
and secured the necessary
funding.
Jefferson County School District 509-J will
host a ground-breaking event for the new

performing arts center. The event is at 10
a.m. this Thursday, August 22.
