Had an amazing time at today’s fish fry with our Guardians crew! 🐟✨
We loved connecting with community youth, getting creative with crafts, and sharing plenty of laughs along the way. It’s moments like these that remind us how special our community really is.

The Guardians catching up with our friend, Miskwaadesi (the Painted Turtle) 🐢

Painted turtles get their name from their bright, colorful shells,they look like they’ve been painted! They love living in ponds and wetlands where they can swim, hunt for small bugs, and bask in the sun on logs to warm up.
