CSST TREE FELLING COURSE Kitigan Zibi Anishinabeg is currently accepting names for a CSST Tree Felling Course. This course, which will consist of class time, field training and final test, will be 2 days (16 hours) in duration. The purpose of this certificate is to be able to obtain tree felling work off-reserve. Those community members who have the cards – do not need re-certification. For those who passed the 16h course and received an attestation, they can just get the card from the Commission Scolaire, (1-866-610-8654). The cards are good for life now. For new ones, they still have to pass the 16h course. Within this course, there is a test and if they pass, they get the card automatically. For those who have no card (but passed the course with an attestation), can call at the Commission to receive the card. There is a one time fee of $120.00. We will only be accepting names of registered community members who require the training. Please leave your name and contact number with Janet Brascoupe at the Band Office at (819) 449-5170. Space is Limited!

FLYERS Anishinabe Printing will be closed for their summer break from July 28th – August 4 th, 2014. Therefore there will be no flyers on July 30th.

PRESS RELEASE

KITIGAN ZIBI-(Maniwaki, Quebec), July 8, 2014: Gino Odjick former NHL player from Kitigan Zibi

Anishinabeg is in a fight for his life; battling serious health issues. The friends and supporters of his First

Nation community and the town of Maniwaki have gathered behind Gino Odjick to show their love and

support by declaring July 25, 2014 “GINODAY- JOURNÉE GINO-GINOKIJIGAD”. On this day, a Golf

Tournament will be held at the Club de Golf Algonquin, located in Messines, Quebec and a Music Event

at L’Auberge du Draveur, located in Maniwaki, Quebec. Special guests have been invited to attend this

event and anyone wanting to join in this day of support to Gino Odjick is welcomed to participate.

The day’s proceeds will go to a trust fund that has been set up through the RBC (Royal Bank of Canada)

that will provide funds for Gino’s medical care and support for his family. Any additional funds will go

towards a foundation created in Gino’s name whose purpose is to further the education, athletic

development, and empowerment of Aboriginal youth in Canada.

If you wish to donate you can do so by going to any RBC branch and informing them you would like to

contribute to the ‘Gino Odjick Trust’.

Other possible events are also being planned for the near future. John Chabot, former NHL player and

also a member of Kitigan Zibi has expressed interest in organizing an NHL alumni benefit game in Gino’s

honour for August. More information will be forthcoming as it becomes available.
