NOTICE — Traditional Grounds Landscaping in Progress

Work is actively underway at the Giiwejwan Traditional Grounds. Roads are being put in, drainage work is in progress, and the newly-seeded areas are beginning their growth.

We kindly ask all community members to please refrain from driving on or through the grounds at this time. Keeping vehicles off the area will help ensure the seeding takes properly and the work can be completed without delay.

Miigwech to the Okikendawt Hydro Trust for approving the funds to make these much-needed improvements possible for future gatherings and our 2026 powwow season.

Miigwech for your understanding.

I want to take this time to offer a heartfelt chi-miigwech to everyone who helped make our 23rd Annual Traditional Powwow in our beautiful home community of Kikendaad, Dokis First Nation such a meaningful and powerful celebration.

To all of the dancers, singers, head staff, invited guests, volunteers, firekeepers, vendors, sponsors, fish fry catering, community members, and those who traveled from near and far—thank you for coming together to share in the spirit of our gathering. Your presence and energy helped make this weekend truly special.

A huge shoutout and deep gratitude to our powwow committee—you showed up in every way possible. From brainstorming and fundraising, to organizing accommodations for our guests, setting up in the rain, and keeping everything running smoothly through the weekend (registration, ticket sales, and lots of running around!), your dedication did not go unnoticed. I appreciate each and every one of you.

Here’s to community, culture, and coming together in a good way. Baamaapii kina wiya 🦅

Next year, come celebrate with us June 27 & 28, 2026 for our 24th Annual Traditional Pow Wow
