The Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians has a rich history dating back to 1745 when Chief Keeshkemun led the Band to the area, eventually adopting the name Lac du Flambeau from their traditional torch-lit fishing practices.
Officially established by the Treaty of 1854, the Lac du Flambeau Reservation has evolved from a logging area to a popular tourist destination, attracting families from southern Wisconsin and Illinois at the turn of the century.
