Remembering our past. Celebrating our present. Building our future.
Wiidookdaadiwin
Our name, Wiidookdaadiwin, which means "Working Together and Helping One Another" in the Anishinaabemowin (Ojibway) language, embodies the spirit of collaboration and community. This guiding principle is not only reflected in our name but has also been adopted by our working group, Friends of Wiidookdaadiwin.
Our Spirit
Wiidookdaadiwin will not only offer a place of education, reflection and a celebration of shared history, but will also model a new way of collaboration based on truth and respect.

Our Place
For over 10 years, the Friends of Wiidookdaadiwin have worked together to bring a vision to life of a place celebrating our collective histories… a place to forge our future together.
The Site
Now that the Wiidookdaadiwin Lookout is complete, you will find much more than just a great view – it will be a hub of cultural significance, it will foster an interest in our heritage, and it will demonstrate how beauty can be preserved.
