Come to a town hall meeting to discuss the disposition of Coldwater Spring (a sacred spring in Minneapolis near Ft. Snelling). Right now there's an agreement between the National Park Service and Fish and Wildlife to work together on the disposition of the spring. There are many folks who want the spring to become a National Park. The Dakotah Nation would like the land returned to them.
