RAPID CITY \u2013 During the Rapid City Council\u2019s working session on March 10, Darla Drew provided an update on Camp Mni Luzahan which included the Camp\u2019s organizers transitioning to an alcohol-free area.<\/p>\n

Drew, being part of the City and County\u2019s detox board, said that the organizers of Camp Mni Luzahan approached the administration at the Care Campus and Crisis Center for help on the transition.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was a project by educated, probably a generation younger than me, American Indians that really had the best interest of their relatives in their hearts,\u201d said Drew. \u201cAnd they found out, just like most of us in the police force and the fire department, any emergency systems dealing with the populations that showed up there whether they are drinking or on drugs, it is very difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n

Drew cited the organizers original plans to operate a \u2018wet tent\u2019 where alcohol would be permitted, but fights, and even people being pushed into fires, was the outcome.<\/p>\n

Now, Drew said, whenever there is a problem involving substances at the camp, a bus transports the people from which the problem stemmed and takes them to Rapid City\u2019s Care Campus for the evening. Drew also said that since this practice has begun, the numbers at the Care Campus have stayed relatively the same.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is on trust land, and there is not a lot we can do up there but they came, the folks that are in charge up there, came in to us and said \u2018how can you help us\u2019,\u201d she said. \u201cWhich I think is a big step forward.\u201d<\/p>\n
