2nd Annual Children's Water Walk

An inspiring display of young activism as the 2nd Annual Children's Water Walk took place on May 10, 2023, along the shores of Lake Superior KBIC Head Start Director Terri Swartz and the Wiikwedong Collaborative organized this event to raise awareness and teach young children about the importance of clean water and how we need to take care of our water for future generations.

"Im hoping we're planting some seeds that will prosper in years to come so that we will have water walkers for future generations," said Terri.

Terri has been walking for the water for 13 years and carries an eagle staff gifted to her by her late friend and fellow water walker, Pauline Spruce.
