OJP & The Hay Bay Boys
Our Sifft Shamrocks had the Hay Bay Boys drum for them before last nights game! They donned their @orangejerseyproject sweaters for the game.
We are thankful for this opportunity to encourage action for truth and reconciliation and help educate athletes about the true history of the Indian Residential school system in Canada. Orange Jersey Project works to create awareness of the intergenerational impacts of Indian Residential Schools and strengthen the path toward truth and reconciliation with Indigenous and Non-Indigenous Peoples. The District of Parry Sound is home of the Anishinaabeg/Anishinaabek – Ojibway, Odawa and Potawatomi peoples, and the territory of the Wasauksing, Shawanaga, Magnetawan, Dokis and Henvey Inlet First Nations and is under the Robinson-Huron Treaty. As we are all treaty people, it is important to learn about the lands we stand on and the people who live here. #OJP#truthandreconciliation #Sports #Hockey
