The Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Reservation is the most diverse and unique tribe of North Dakota, offering multi culture, history, and scenic recreation. The transition from woodlands to plains people vastly influenced the culture of the Turtle Mountain Chippewa: food, transportation, clothing, and housing were all adapted to meet the needs of the people and the tribe.  In addition, the blending of other cultures greatly impacted their language and life ways from social structure and language, to customs and dance. The reservation is home to the Sky Dancer Casino & Resort and annual attractions such as Chippewa Downs Live Horse Racing, Little Shell Pow -wow, Sky Chief Park (Gordon Lake) and our TM Heritage Center.
