For millennia, the Chumash people have been a maritime culture, renowned for their plank canoes, *tomols*, used to navigate the Channel Islands. European colonization nearly erased the craft of tomol building, but today, Alan Salazar and his Chumash and Fernandeño Tataviam communities are dedicated to reviving this vital knowledge for future generations.

Support the Tataviam Land Conservancy's project to build two new tomols. This initiative will unite the Fernandeño Tataviam and Chumash tribes through educational events and workshops focused on tomol craft, culture, and paddling.

On June 21, 2017, the summer solstice and National Aboriginal Day, Turtle Lodge Elders and representatives from the Original Nations lit a sacred fire at Manitou Api. The flame was brought to Winnipeg, where Elder Dave Courchene lit the Centennial Flame at the Manitoba Legislative Building. It will burn for one year, inspiring the province and nation.

This sacred flame launched the 2017 Canada Games torch run in Manitoba and later lit the Games' cauldron.

A video for the Canada Games was created by Patrick Roberge, PRP Inc. Acknowledgements go to the Elders for their vision and to Barry Mathers for his hard work with the Canada Games and Turtle Lodge.
