OUTREACH
There will soon be gleaning for apples, and pears. We have blanks
at the Tribal office, and the driver of the Senior Citizen Tribal car
keeps blank copies on hand for anyone5 who is interested. The gleaning
program is for low income households of any age; young and middle aged
adults as well as Senior Citizens.: - !
The Tribal ; Council will have only a "limited wood program this
winter for low income senior citizens. However, if anyone has a
problem with their utility andor heating bills, give the Outreach
a call at the Tribal office. We-may have a helpful suggestion from
our various resources.
