Winter at the Wigwam

Posted in: Instructional

Drop by the wigwam to get a glimpse into what it was like for the Ojibwa people to live in a wigwam along the Pine River several hundred years ago. You'll have a chance to see some traditional tools used for hunting and preparing wild game, learn about the fur trade and see some plants used for making cordage and baskets. If there is enough snow, we'll play a game of snow snakes outside. FREE | All Ages, under 18 w/adult. Chippewa Nature Center, 400 S. Badour Rd., Midland. 2 to 4 PM. Phone 989-631-0830.
