THE CIRCLE OF TURTLE LODGE

In 1997, a few friends began to gather regularly to discuss various aspects of Anishinabe Spirituality. As we learned more and more, we decided to create a community training program to re-introduce local Indigenous people to some of our Cultural Traditions. We delivered our workshops to a select group in June 1998, and although not all participants embraced the Teachings, those who did take part did so whole-heartedly... We are an independent not-for-profit organization, and a registered charity, based in Deacon, Ontario, which is at the head of Golden Lake in unceded Algonquin Territory... We've been working on this change for a while, but received word late in 2015 that our application to become a Registered Charity had been approved.
