Waawase’ Aagaming Water Walk June 24-July 2

This walk is being held in the same spirit of the Mother Earth Water Walks that have taken place around the Great Lakes. It has been requested by Grandmother Josephine Mandamin of the Three Fires Lodge and founding Chief Commissioner of the Anishinabek Women’s Water Commission.

 

  • The walk starts June 23rd at Georgina Island. The organizers of the Water Walk invite people from all Nations to walk with them as they do prayer and ceremony in the Anishinaabe way.

 

  • You can walk for the length of time of your choosing as there will be a core group who will walk the entire distance carrying the water in a copper kettle.

 

  • The walkers will be in Barrie on Thursday, June 26th.
