Mission
The Mission of the Future Leaders Summer Program is
to develop Leadership and Entrepreneurial skills for our youth
participants. The Lac Du Flambeau Tribe is commitment to utilizing
numerous hands-on activities, tools, skills and knowledge of local
entrepreneurs and leaders to inspire our youth participants to join the next
generation of community leaders and entrepreneurs. The decisions
we make today have consequences that lie in the future...

Our Vision
The ultimate intent of
this program is that the entire reservation economy will benefit in the
future from today's educational investments in our young people.
The Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior
Chippewa Indians believes that by fostering leadership and
entrepreneurial skills within our youth, we will spearhead the
revitalization of the individual enterprise within the reservation. As
an additional benefit, youth participants will take part in leadership
and community service activities that will promote civic and cultural
responsibility. See
Today's Warriors Leaders and
Entrepreneurs video clip for highlights of the 2006 program.
