ELL: l'arbre croche and odaw

[Benjamin Troutman]

i am wondering if anyone is interested in the languages of michigan,
esp. those variations of eastern ojibway (=odawa) in emmet county
(historically "l'arbre croche").  are the casinos helping odawa
survive?  how many people speak a native language of michigan?  how
many CHILDREN speak?  these and other questions have been on my mind since
i've been staying in harpor springs.  i would love any input that someone
may have on the variations and field methodology.

all the best,
