Current closure is until June 22nd but we now have several positive cases on San Carlos so things will likely change by then.

What I don't understand is that it is closed to non tribal members due to not wanting the spread of Covid 19( I understand not wanting to spread it) but go to Safford and Globe and see how many members are there in the Walmarts, Safeways, etc then go back to the rez after that.

I doubt anything is going to open on the Rez anytime soon. Newest info from yesterday...

Public Information Announcement: 

Monday, June 22, 2020 the Tribal council approve the following:

Consequences begin with the 1st offense being $5000 fine; 
2nd Offense would result in the loss of Tribal Member benefits for 1 year; 
3rd offense would be the permanent loss of Tribal membership.  

2. A resolution approving Hon Dah Casino as the Quarantine Site which will house Voluntary and involuntary people. 
If a person is running around with the virus that is no longer tolerated and will be placed in a quarantine site by way of law enforcement and court.

I hiked deep into a spot on Black River (State Land) a couple weekends ago and fishing was ROUGH to say the least. crawdads have hatched, flow was way down, water was getting pretty murky with all the algae forming. The fish were not hungry at all with all the crawdads in the water. Fishing is going to be pretty tough for the next several months.

standman is first on the scene.

WMAT total lockdown for the foreseeable future. 

my Dr. is on the crisis mgmt team  for non-reservation Navajo county.  he will look you right in the eye and tell any and all that by Christmas the county will have had a 90% infection rate.

good luck,

Is this a temporary thing or the future?

"till the end of the year" the declaration reads.  can't find the entire statement anywhere other than fb.

San Carlos extended our tribal employee administrative leave through Sept 30th yesterday, hopefully that's not a preview of closure extension. 

San Carlos Covid19 numbers are currently soaring for reservation residents.

Our commission meets tomorrow to discuss upcoming hunting seasons.
