The Wharf rebuild has been completed and the new Water Treatment Plant build is underway, with a brand new road leading to the construction site.  Now we need appropriate names for these valuable components of our infrastructure.

We are announcing a naming contest – or three naming contests, to be exact – for our new builds. We will be naming:

• The new Wharf
• The new Road to the Water Treatment Plant being built
• The new Water Treatment Plant itself

Each name chosen will earn the creator a $500 cash prize and the unique honour of naming a permanent piece of our community.

Submit your ideas to Band Office Reception, by mail or drop-off, in a sealed envelope marked “Naming Contest”. The Band Office is located at 135 Lakeshore Boulevard, Neyaashiinigmiing, ON, N0H 2T0.

This contest is open to all members of the Chippewas of Nawash Unceded First Nation. Submissions will be accepted until April 29, at 4:00 PM.

We are excited to hear each of your ideas! Good luck to all entrants!
