The Flin Flon and Area Against Sexual Exploitation Committee invites everyone in the Flin Flon and surrounding area including Men, Women, Children and Grand Mothers to come out to the annual Grandmother’s Walk.
It takes place this Monday September the 21st and Crista McIntire talks about the purpose of the walk. " We hold this event every year on September the 21st, the Fall Equinox. It is in support of the Grandmother's Council who initiated this walk. We follow the wisdom of Grandmothers and we walk together to raise awareness to protect children from sexual exploitation."
The event will begin with a Pipe Ceremony at 4pm with Elder Margaret Head, then the walk will begin at 5pm at the Northern Neighbors Flowers down Flin Flon’s Main street. There will also be a land acknowledgement and various speeches and entertainment.
There will also be a Grandmother’s Walk in Cranberry on Tuesday the 22nd with everyone meeting at the Cranberry Elementary School parking lot at 5:30, and the walk will begin at 6pm.
