WHAT'S HAPPENING AT CAMP?
Even with Spring Work Camp now over there remains a great deal of work to do to complete projects underway and to prepare for the next winter season. On the land the cycle never ends and summer and fall preparations are critical to making it through the following winter.
There are buildings to be winterized and a lot of firewood to be bucked and split to make the Camp ready for when the weather turns cold again.
And of course there is always the ongoing running of the Camp and the never-ending opposition to unauthorized intrusions onto the territory. We may be waiting for a decision from the colonial court but the work of land defenders never rests.
Can't Make it to camp?
Can't come to camp due to family, work or other commitments? Help get the word out to folks in your community who would be a good fit and share this information. Share this message on social media, through your email contacts and word-of-mouth.
