On September 7, the Métis Nation of Ontario Sunset Country Métis Council and MNO staff from the Fort Frances office held a Métis Fall Celebration.

Although celebrating the beginning of the harvest, it was a warm summer day. It was a successful event with close to 120 people in attendance. A variety of activities were offered throughout the day including Bannock making, tug of war, the poison circle, scavenger hunts and the ever so popular Métis Voyageur Games.

The evening ended with a Fish Fry and MNO President Gary Lipinski congratulated the Council and MNO staff members for hosting such a successful event. He also commented on the vast number of youth who attended and participated in all that the celebration had to offer.
