Every so many years, the Menominee Nation is proud to supply the NCAA Mens Basketball Tournament with the finest wood for the basketball court that the Final Four teams play on.
In 2012, CBS Sports Network produced a special documentary called Court of Champions which follows the path of the NCAA basketball court being made: starting with the forests on the Menominee Reservation to it being installed in New Orleans for the Final Four Championships that year.
The program lasts approximately 45 minutes; however the best part of the program is in the first 11 minutes or so .aye!...which focuses on our tribe and our forestry philosophy.
So proud to be Menominee!
