Spring Feast (3rd weekend in May)

Every May, AZA families gather to celebrate and feast on our community lands.  Families prepare a potluck feast of traditional foods and make offerings to the creator.  Traditional teachings are offered to all ages to ensure our culture is passed on to the younger generations.  It is a great time for family and friends to come together and share great food and stories.

June 21st is National Aboriginal Day, an opportunity to learn more about Aboriginal People and their contributions to make Canada the great Nation that it is become.  Share in the day as we host our annual celebration that brings together AZA families, friends and neighbours.  Fun filled events are guaranteed for the whole family.  The events include:  Traditional teachings, AZA Prince and Princess Contest, canoe races, horseshoe tournament, bingo, karaoke contest and fireworks.  Admission is free and all are welcome to come out and celebrate. 

Christmas Party (2nd weekend in December)

Our Annual Christmas party is one of AZA’s most attended events of year.  Christmas is celebrated with high spirits as we set our work aside and gather for an evening of caroling, feasting, gift giving, prayers and wishes.  It provides us with a great opportunity to spend time with family and friends and celebrate the holiday season.
