years of Service to Winnebago Housing.

Winnebago Tribal Leaders held a Prayer

Circle to support participants of the Longest Walk 5.2. A walk for drug abuse &

domestic violence awareness. The walk

started in San Francisco and 3,600 miles

later will end in Washington, D.C.

This year the Brotherhood/Sisterhood High School Basketball Tournament drew some really good teams to the courts of Winnebago. “After 4

days of play Team Storm from Oklahoma was defeated in the Championship game by Showtime from Pine Ridge South Dakota” in the Girls

tournament said Terry “Tbone” Medina, the organizer of the event. “In the boys division Team Lower Sioux Iron 5 (Top Photo) won in the 2nd

game of the Double Elimination Tournament after losing to Team Wambdi (bottom photo)” said Medina. In the final game Lower Sioux come

back to win the final match up as both teams only had one loss to each other throughout the whole tournament. “Those 2 teams were loaded

with some of the best Rez Ballers around, with Winnebago's own D'von LaPointe running with Team Wambdi.” Medina held this years

tournament in “honor of our families.” “Each and everyone if us have troubles in our families, this year we started with a prayer for all our

families, and that’s the thought we had in mind fall participants. My hope is that all these young people took this message home with them.”

Indianz.com… Whiteclay liquor stores must close temporarily amid court battle

Friday, April 28, 2017

The Junior High WPS Academy students

visited New York, New York last week

and Mama Sarelee Saurez sent us back

some shots.

Can anyone tell me what & where this

thing used to be? Prize in it for you if you

get it right…the first time Joi Long.

Whiteclay, Nebraska. Photo: Unedited

Media

Four liquor stores in a small town near

the Pine Ridge Reservation are expected

to shut down temporarily in what is turn-

V i s i t

u s

a t

ing out to be a high-drama legal affair in

Nebraska.

The stores won a court decision early

Thursday that restored the loss of their

licenses. But the state filed an appeal

later in the day, putting the ruling on

hold for up to six months, The Lincoln

Journal Star reported.

As a result, the stores are being advised to stop selling liquor when their

licenses expire at midnight on Sunday, an

attorney who represents the owners told

the paper. The fight will then continue in

the court system.

The Nebraska Liquor Control Commission revoked the licenses last week after

hearing complaints about law enforcement, social and other issues in the tiny

community. Native activists and their

supporters said the sale of millions of

cans of beer every year exploits citizens

of the nearby Oglala Sioux Tribe.

The tribe does not allow liquor to be

sold on the reservation, a void filled by

the stores in Whiteclay. Fewer than a

dozen people live there.

In My Opinion

Hayna Ga Earth Honored after 23 years of Service JESUS OUR SAVIOR

LUTHERAN OUTREACH

“A man who knew a thing or two”

Anthony “Hayna Ga” Earth was honored last Monday for his 23 years of service

to the Winnebago People in his numerous capacities on the Winnebago Gaming

Commission.

Hayna Ga as he is known on his homeland, began his service as a Winnebago

Tribal Council Member. He helped negotiate a contract depute between the Winnebago Tribe and previous investors of the tribe’s WinnaBingo operation. After

successful negotiations the doors opened for the Winnebago Tribe to open the WinnaVegas Casino. And as they say, ‘The rest is history.’

Anthony helped draft new rules and regulations that governed the WinnaVegas

Casino operations, and also helped draft the gaming compact with the State of Iowa.

Much of today’s gaming compliance regulations can be attributed to Hayna Ga. Bet

you young ones didn’t even know that.

Hayna Ga said he isn’t done yet, he plans on finding a new job, and of course, playing

some Golf. But for now he’ll be content with kicking back a while, enjoy his favorite tea

at breakfast, and may even be caught mornings enjoying breakfast at the Knights Stop.

Letter To The Editor,

Aho! Hello everyone. Once again I

would like to speak to our Winnebago

Tribal membership about the very important issue of alcoholism and drug

abuse happening within the boundaries

of our Winnebago Indian Reservation.

Sometime back I wrote an article to you

in our paper informing you of a referendum that was enacted 30 years ago, to

have a dry community and to prosecute

to the full extent of the law, those who

possess and sell illegal substances to

our children. I encouraged us we need

to stand together as Winnebago people

and make it as uncomfortable as humanly possible for those who stand

against our children's future and wish

to destroy them. I advised that we bring

to bear all of the resources we have

against these individuals, by petitioning our law enforcement, judicial, and

legislative branches to put pressure on

these individuals and rid them from our

community. Since that time not much

has happened in that regard.

Today friends and relatives, I have put

together a group called Miasja-Xetera,

which translate to (The Big Strength). The

meaning that goes with Miasja-Xetera,

is the strength that comes from within

you, to overcome any obstacle before you.

An example would be, obstacles such

as alcoholism and substance abuse for

instance. I have met with the clergy of

our community to officially launch this

group, asking for their support and they

have given it. We have stood together and

made our prayer. We have asked for the

Creators help, and to intercede on our

behalf, so the Winnebago community can

be free of this scourge that has plagued

and killed members of our community

for generations.

I now ask for your support and to

stand with Miasja-Xatera, to help make

it the tip of the spear, so we as a community can stand together to protect not

only our future but the future of generations to come. We can no longer wait or

depend on those who work in our tribal

organization who do not have a vested

interest in our community to help us. I

have watched for far too long non-tribal

members, come and go in our tribal organization, only to fatten themselves up on

our resources and move on with no regard

for our wellbeing when they were done.

It still continues to happen to this day.

I ask you to be strong friends and

relatives. Let us all put our foot down

and say NO MORE! The buck stops here

at our feet. We are not going to let this

plague and ugliness continue to have a

presence in our community. We as NisocHa-Ci people are not going to let this

go down on our watch. Let us all come

together and gather in unity to achieve

this objective. Let us put into practice our

traditions, customs, beliefs and values as

Ho-Chunks to defeat this evil sickness.

Let us do everything within our power to

heal from the traumas of the past. Let us

lock arms together and walk down this

road oflife, so when the need arises, we

can hold each other up.

I believe in us. I am confident in our

abilities, that we as a people can meet

this challenge and overcome this obstacle

that has been keeping us sick and down

for far too long. We are a patriarchal society, a society of warrior's. So let us take

action against those who bring alcohol

and illegal drugs into our community.

Let us never forget when we came down

the Missouri River the condition we were

in, over 150 years ago. We have come

this far because we are a people who are

determined and resourceful. Let's put

this determination and resourcefulness

into practice once again to protect our

children and our future generations!

I thank you for your indulgence and

the time it took you to read this. May

Mauna keep blessing you and watching

over your loved ones as we move forward

to a brighter and healthier future for our

future generations! I continue to ask for

your support. Please stand by for future

updates.

Respectfully,

Roland Warner

I want to draw your attention to a

man who did know a thing or two. His

name was Job. I can not tell you when

he actually lived, nor where he actually

lived. I do know that Job was a Godfearing man. In spite of being a man

who shunned evil, his life was far from

trouble free.

Job was a married man. He and his

wife were blessed with seven sons and

three daughters. He also owned 7,000

sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen

and 500 donkeys, plus he had a large

number of servants.

His sons would take turns holding

feasts in their homes and invite their

sisters. When the feasting ran its course,

Job would send and have them purified.

Early in the morning he would sacrifice

a burnt offering for each of them, thinking “perhaps my children have sinned

and cursed God in their hearts.” This

was Job’s custom. Job knew something

about human nature, that it was sin full;

and more importantly he knew God, that

He is merciful.

Satan was given permission by God

to tempt Job. Satan was allowed by God,

to take everything Job had from him,

except not to lay a finger on him. On one

day Job lost all that he owned, plus most

of his servants. All of his children were

killed in a storm that brought down the

house they were feasting in.

At this, Job got up and tore his robe

and shaved his head. Then he fell to

the ground in worship and said: “Naked

I came from my mother’s womb, and

naked I will depart. The Lord gave and

the Lord has taken away; may the name

of the Lord be praised.” [Job 1:20–21

(NIV84)]

God asked Satan if he observed how

God’s servant Job remained blameless

and upright, a man who fears God and

Pastor Ricky Jacob

shuns evil. Satan replied, “Skin for

skin!” Then God allowed Satan to afflict Job, but Satan must spare Job’s

life. Job was afflicted with painful sores

from the top of his head to the bottom

of his feet. He took a piece of broken

pottery and scraped himself with it as

he sat among the ashes.

To make matters worse Job’s wife

said, “Are you still holding on to your

integrity? Curse God and die!” Job

replied, “You are talking like a foolish

woman. Shall we accept good from God,

and not trouble?”

It the midst of Job’s suffering he

comes to utter the words: “I know that

my Redeemer lives, and that in the end

he will stand upon the earth. And after

my skin has been destroyed, yet in my

flesh I will see God; I myself will see him

with my own eyes—I, and not another.

How my heart yearns within me!”

Job was blessed by God to know

His redeemer, Jesus, who years later

would rise victorious from the grave!

Jesus, the Son of Mary and the Son of

God, would redeem, or pay for all sin!

On Good Friday, Jesus paid to redeem

the world: not with gold or silver, but

with His Holy precious blood and with

His innocent suffering and death.

On the first Easter, Jesus rose victoriously! Jesus offers redemption to all

those who place their trust, their faith

in Him. God’s Spirit instills faith in the

hearts and minds as a blessed gift, to

people of all ages, tribes and languages.

When you know that Jesus is the

redeemer of sinners, and ‘knowing’ in

this way is believing, then you are truly

blessed by God! You know all there is to

know to have the peace and the comfort

and the joy of life, today and forever.

Land Buyback Program

LAND BUYBACK PROGRAM

The Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska Land Buyback Cooperative Agreement with the Department of the Interior will be concluding soon. A

component of the Cobell Settlement the Federal Land Buyback Program allocated a purchase estimate of $18.5 Million Dollars to the Winnebago Tribe to purchase fractionated land from individual owners to consolidate ownership to the Winnebago Tribe. All purchases will

transfer title to the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska.

HOW TO READ MY INDIVIDUAL TRUST INVENTORY?

SAMPLE:

Tract Acreage x Interest Value (160 x .0333333334 = 5.3333333344 Acres)

If Total Appraisal Value for 160 acres was $800,000 x .0333333334= Fractional Appraisal Value = $26,666.66

APPRAISALS

Data from 258 comparable land sales in the following counties in Iowa and Nebraska (Thurston, Dixon, Dakota, Burt, Cuming, Wayne, Woodbury & Monona)

from January 2010 to November 2016 were utilizined in the Mass appraisal method in performing the Winnebago fair market valuations.

LAND SALE PROCESS

1. Check you mail for Land Sale Packet (see picture below)

2. Review Purchasable Inventory (2 options)

3. Fill in O with black/blue pen for SELL ALL TRACTS LISTED

4. Fill in O with black/blue pen for tracts of your choosing to sell (VOLUNTARY)

Sign One Page Deed in presence of a Notary Public (with Valid ID)

Return ALL documents with a bar code (Deed, Purchasable Inventory I & II)

Make Copies for your records!

What Offer Packet Looks Like

Purchasable Inventory

One Page Deed

45 Days to Return

The envelope says Time Sensitive Materials as there is a time limit to return all documents back to the Federal Land Buyback Program. The postage mark on

the offer is the start and as land owner you have 45 days to make a decision, Notarize and Sign the Deed and return.

$75 Dollar Base Payment

Individuals who choose to participate will receive a $75 Base payment for their Land Sale Offer, this is a minimum for processing and getting documents notarized and returned.

M- Tract

The M next to the tract number means Mineral which is the sub-surface, those tracts are being valued at $7.50/acre. You can retain your rights to these M

Tracts by not choosing to sell. However, if a tract is listed as a B it includes both Surface and Minerals and those tracts cannot be divided.

WHAT IF I MADE A MISTAKE ON DEED?

Contact the Trust Beneficiary Call Center or Office of Special Trustee to re-print offer as soon as possible at 888-678-6836.

The Winnebago Land Buyback Program thanks you for your patience in advance, but we are coming upon the time when our offers will be arriving very soon

in May. We have conducted numerous outreach events in New Mexico, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Kansas, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Iowa and right here in

Nebraska. Our federal partners have sent out a postcard three times to 3,700 unique land owners along with the mailings that our office has sent in advance of

outreach events.

The program and Federal Land Buyback was featured in the Omaha World Herald newspaper in February and a commercial was produced and aired in 2017 for

the Wisconsin area to bring attention to the Winnebago Land Buyback. We recognize that besides mailings we have not been able to target those land owners on

the West and East Coast and other states with low population of Winnebago land owners and we offer our sincere apologies for not getting to you in person and our

team hopes if you have questions that you please contact the Trust Beneficiary Call Center or our office 402-878-4260 to answer any questions that need attention.

Our team has two individuals, Maggie Miller and Too Sharpback who are Nebraska notaries can offer that service to you as a land owner just stop by to our office

located at 504 Ho Chunk Plaza or next to Daga’s Mexican Grill.

We are confident that as a land owner you will make an educated decision with the best interest for you and our Tribe. At the conclusion of Land Buyback, The

Tribe will benefit with gaining controlling interests (51%) and management on numerous allotments and in some cases whole ownership of tract. It will change the

whole geography of our reservation and allow for the eventual development of a comprehensive land use plan that could employ us through future opportunities,

but most importantly will house us as tribal and community members.

The full impact of Land Buyback will not be realized for another generation. On our outreach travels in Green Bay, Wisconsin, we visited their Land Acquisition

team. Under their mission statement it read “Thank you for your strong commitment and dedication to the Division of Land Management without

your persistence in land acquisition the 7th generation would not have a home to come to. You are a true Caretaker of the land.” This is a vision statement for Winnebago as this once in a lifetime opportunity will enable the next generation of Winnebago families to settle and come home. Pinigigi!

Grumbling about injustice never makes it better. No one exemplifies this ideal

more than Chief Standing Bear of the Ponca Tribe. He selflessly fought against

injustice for his family, his tribe, and his people. With the power of many Nebraska

voices he stood up to the United States government in the infamous 1877 court case,

“Ponca vs. Crook.” His example showed me that no matter who you are or how busy

your life becomes, you can make a difference. Artist Mary Engelbre it said, “If you

don’t like something, change it.” This is just what Standing Bear did. His powerful words “I am a man, I am human!” inspires me to raise awareness and use my

voice to stand up for equality. Standing Bear’s courageous story taught me that all

human beings deserve respect. It is my pledge, that like Standing Bear, I will work

to defend the basic rights endowed to all people by our Creator.
