The first community meeting is said to have assembled under
a tree about two miles from the present chapter house.
Sheep dipping and branding of livestock were the main
topics of the community in the earlier days. Forest Lake
Chapter is unique because of its isolated location. The
chapter is located on top of Black Mesa in the mid, north
central part of the Navajo Reservation in Arizona. Due to
the remoteness, emergency services are not realized in
time, i.e., police and ambulance services. People remain
traditional and continue to depend on livestock.
The Forest Lake Chapter conducts monthly meetings to keep
residents informed; residents have a forum to express their
opinions to their Navajo Nation Council Delegate or to
decide on matters concerning the chapter.
