Title: Walk on Water...Breaking Trails
Date: March 22, 2010
Location: Behchokö, Culture Centre - Please meet outside the Culture Centre at 900am for those need a ride to the Marion Lake Ice Road.
Summary: Tåîchô Community Services Agency (TCSA) along with Aurora College began the "Walk on Water ... Breaking Trails" last year to remember and honour our Tåîchô ancestors and elders.
The Community-Based Teacher Education Program (TEP & ALCIP) students, during their years in the Community-Based Educators' Preparation Program (CEPP) reconnected to their Tåîchô language and culture through on-the-land culture camps, learning to read & write in Tåîchô , hearing Tåîchô stories and legends, listening to elders' presentations like the late Elizabeth Mackenzie and so much more.
Let's celebrate the last year of the TEP and show our appreciation to the TEP students by participating in the Walk on Water on March 22nd. The schools, local organizations and community members of Behchokö are all invited.
Last year the Walk on Water participants started walking from the outside of the Culture Center towards Xaeli. This year the participants will be walking from the Marion ice road towards Rae. For those who need a ride to the ice road please meet outside the Culture Centre at 9.00am.
"Walk on Water...Breaking Trails" brings awareness to keep ourselves healthy - spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally and environmentally.
If you are joining the walk you will receive a free t-shirt, please email us you size by the end of next week.
We hope that this walk will continue and become an annual event that will tie the schools, organizations and community together in Behchokö. If there is any interest in holding this event next year or for more information contact Lucy Lafferty or Wendy Mantla at 392-3000.
