History
Bay Mills has been a significant site for the Ojibwe (Chippewa) people for centuries, with a rich history centered on Whitefish Bay and Lake Superior fishing. Officially established in 1860, the community became a federally recognized tribe in 1936, later launching Bay Mills Community College (1981) and major economic developments like casinos.
