Ancestral Lineage Workshop  two Day   Jan. 22-23 week -end

First in a series of two day workshops that will prepare us for
coming events with the celebrations of 200 Years of Peace,
based on the war of 1812.

In this session, we will learn why is important to honor our
ancestral lineage. We will start to research and learn new ways and
techniques to trace and honor our ancestral lineage.  The NCNW is
commencing a research project to celebrate the lives and many
contributions of Native Women and their history in this region over
the last 200 years.  We are seeking to connect those lives from long
ago, with lives of Native Women living today for the benefit of truth
telling for the general public and to profile them both in a 2012 -13
Commemorative Book which also coincidently, coincides with NCNW's
30th Anniversary.  We want you to be part of it.  This series is for 
everyone, youth, elders, and the in betweeners so come look into 
your past and see what gems we can all find to share and be proud of.
Everyone has those old ancestral stories....let's bring them forth!
While this workshop will relate to the women's project, we will also
start looking at other 1812 issues, such as lacrosse, period clothing
cultural customs and more.  Plan to attend.
