We offer medicine walks and traditional plant gathering guided by the Elders on our Wisdom Keepers Council. Our centre has seasonally influenced activities and events such as snowshoeing, tobogganing, survival skills, canoeing, fishing on ice or open water, small game hunts, gardening, open fire cooking, water ceremonies or outdoor ceremonies, pow-wows and more.
Last summer our centre hosted summer language camps that brought together families for intergenerational learning of Nishinaabemowin language. We also host an annual traditional moose hunt camp which teaches hunting techniques, cleaning moose meat and how to build a camp. The knowledge holders must have a space and place to pass on what they know to our youth and carry on traditions.
