If you're in the vicinity of Pablo, Montana....

....this should be good:

Daniel F. Decker, noted attorney and member of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes, returns to the Salish Kootenai College campus to offer a free lecture to explore water rights of American Indian tribes. Decker will provide a general background and then focus on particular water issues on the Flathead Indian Reservation.

This event is open to the public and will be held at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 5 at the Salish Kootenai College campus’ Johnny Arlee and Victor Charlo Theatre.

Water rights continue to be a complex and sometimes contentious issue. Ownership and control of water has dramatic impacts on individual landowners, municipalities, and both state and tribal governments. This lecture will explore the historic context of water rights and provide information on the fundamental aspects of water ownership and control.
