Christmas comes to Cass Lake

I’m taking today off for a day of Christmas shopping, but I’m pleased to add one more uplifting post. Last week, I wrote about a computer glitch threatening Christmas for many of the kids in Cass Lake.

Thom Blackbird, from the Cass Lake Family Center sends along this update.
