Buffalo's Fire invites submissions for new readers feature

Community engagement manager Daniela Aki asks for letters, newsroom questions and event flyers

Smoke signals were used to communicate messages across the Great Plains and, in keeping with that tradition, Buffalo’s Fire would like to post your messages of gathering, community, support, and more on our new feature: Smoke Signals.

My name is Daniela Aki, and I am the Community Engagement Manager for Buffalo’s Fire. Send me your letters, questions for the newsroom, and flyers of your events—local and afar—and we’ll post them for all to see. We’re creating a community of engaged citizens, gathering like-minded allies, and chasing change together.

Stay Connected

Each month, I’ll highlight events where you can catch up with me in person. I’m here to listen to your concerns and suggestions for ways to strengthen our community.

Our communities are composed of individuals; it’s up to us for our communities to reflect values that benefit us all. I look forward to engaging more with each of you and igniting the spark of civic engagement that helps keep Buffalo’s Fire spreading across North Dakota and beyond.
