White Earth Pesticide Investigation 

A message from White Earth regarding the symptoms people are experiencing after the softball game at Ogema days: 

The White Earth Pesticide Coordinator is currently investigating to determine the cause of symptoms. If you are experiencing symptoms of eye irritation, please flush your eyes with cool water for about a half hour. Please seek medical attention. It is good to have medical documentation if needed.

If you experienced symptoms and have any unwashed items such as hats, sunglasses, shirts, etc. Please put those items in a sealed plastic bag or garbage bag. Keep these items in the freezer and contact Renee Keezer for sample collection. These items will not be returned.

This is an ongoing investigation. We appreciate your patience as we work to get answers for our community members. If you were at the softball game in the evening in Ogema on September 1st, even if you did not experience symptoms, please reach out to Renee Keezer.
