This is what our great grandparents left for us, our children and grandchildren, and the coming generations.<br /><br />“Our Feast is where we give thanks for what we feed our families, the foods that come from our lands and waters. The Three String Wampum is a symbol for shaking hands with our Brothers and Sisters, their children and all living things. This is where our teachings come from. We<br />have a big responsibility: To Protect Our Land, To Protect Our Animals, Fish and Birds. To defend our hunting way of life so our teachings and our feast will continue to exist for our children, grandchildren and the coming generations, along with our Language and Beliefs.”<br /><br />-- A message from the Barriere Lake Community<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7698846925375972334-1565693179382880543?l=barrierelakecrafts.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Barriere Lake Craftshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01659914014552613168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7698846925375972334.post-65169413381699745582008-12-08T11:49:00.000-08:002008-12-09T11:52:44.260-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m3dMHNXpjkg/STOqMxB4AII/AAAAAAAAAMA/jdegKOeL1ms/s1600-h/Barriere+Lake+Crafts+022.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m3dMHNXpjkg/STOqMxB4AII/AAAAAAAAAMA/jdegKOeL1ms/s320/Barriere+Lake+Crafts+022.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274746724877336706" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Barriere Lake Radio T-Shirts</span></span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);">Cost: $15-25</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">*Proceeds support Barriere Lake.</span><br /><br />The image on the t-shirt is the sound wave file produced by someone saying: "Mitchikinabiko'inik Nodaktcigen", which translates into "Radio Barriere Lake".<br /><br /></span><br />To order a shirt, email: barrierelakecrafts@gmail.com<br /></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7698846925375972334-6516941338169974558?l=barrierelakecrafts.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Barriere Lake Craftshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01659914014552613168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7698846925375972334.post-43930991830049359812008-11-09T08:45:00.000-08:002008-12-09T08:52:47.665-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_CEuWEIc0qno/ST6hebdvB4I/AAAAAAAAAAU/BjQ_DPnwlo4/s1600-h/Barriere+Lake+Crafts+011.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_CEuWEIc0qno/ST6hebdvB4I/AAAAAAAAAAU/BjQ_DPnwlo4/s320/Barriere+Lake+Crafts+011.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5277833357465421698" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />Decorative Canoe<br />Price: $15<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_CEuWEIc0qno/ST6g94DmaXI/AAAAAAAAAAM/TLpXcA75CF8/s1600-h/Barriere+Lake+Crafts+005.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_CEuWEIc0qno/ST6g94DmaXI/AAAAAAAAAAM/TLpXcA75CF8/s320/Barriere+Lake+Crafts+005.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5277832798204750194" border="0" /></a><br />Baby Moccasins<br />Various sizes and colours<br />Price: $10<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7698846925375972334-4393099183004935981?l=barrierelakecrafts.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Barriere Lake Craftshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01659914014552613168noreply@blogger.com0
