We specialize in Language instruction as well! Come and learn Cree, out on the land, out doing traditional activities for a few days and go back refreshed and rejuvenated.
Q1. Where is this located?
Within the Treaty 6 Territory, the camp is situated in northeastern Saskatchewan. The base camp is situated on Ministikwan Lake Cree Nation and the learning is down on the traditional territory of our nation. Boreal forest, bush, lakes and waters of the area are beautiful.
Q2. What type of clothing should I bring to the camp?
This will depend on the season you are planning to come. If it's winter, bring layers and good boots. It's good to bring neck/face warmers if you want to run the dogs. Warmer months, bring layers but take into account rain and having rain gear on hand.
Q3. Where am I going to be sleeping?
This will depend on the season again. For extreme temperatures, there are options of cabins and lake house. Winter months, there have been participants that have tried quinzees and trappers tents. Warmer months, tipis and trappers tents are great options. We do have RV sites at the camp. Limited space available.
Q4. What do we bring for the ceremonies?
This is always a personal choice, usually participants would bring tobacco and cloth. Being out on the land is all ceremony.
Q5. Is there wifi or internet?
There is no cell service in the area and very limited wifi or internet. This is a very unique and helps participants being fully present in all the learning that happens.
