May. 31, 2016

The annual spring feasting of our traditional ancestral lands was held at the Community Round House on Friday, May 27, 2016, under the guidance of Elder Gilbert Smith.  Our Elders Council members were in attendance, and we thank them for making the arrangements for this ceremony to be done. Due to the sudden hot weather the week prior, it was decided to have the ceremony performed as soon as possible while the buds were just starting to grow.

 

 

 

 


   

In addition to the feasting of the lands, a ceremony was held to honour the life of a young Eagle that was discovered prior to last year’s fall feasting.  During a special pipe ceremony, a message was delivered that said the Eagle was gifting our community with life in a good way.  It was a very important and special day for the First Nation and its leadership who found the young eagle.

“This Eagle will guide you, your leadership and your community! He will provide your people with life and strength to do what needs to be done.” said Elder Smith. 

Our members are encouraged to feast their own regalia, drums, feathers, sacred bundles, etc., in the spring and fall, and whenever required in their personal lives.
