If anyone has or knows of anyone who has an old banjo or Mandolin that they don't use and can donate, it would be going to a great place. There is a music program started in Webequie, Ontario. A reserve that is above the trap line.

This a little information on Webequie:

Webequie First Nation is located on the northern peninsula of Eastwood Island on Winisk Lake, 540 km (336 mi) north of the city of Thunder Bay, Ontario. Webequie is a fly in community with no summer road access. The primary way into the community is by air or winter road, which connects to the Northern Ontario Resource Trail. The First Nation have the 34,279 ha Webequie Indian Reserve. The Webequie or Webiqui Indian Settlement also have reserve status. Webequie First Nation is a member of the Matawa First Nations Management, Inc., a regional tribal council and a member of the Nishnawbe Aski Nation.

The registered population of Webequie was 714 persons in September of 2007, of which the on-reserve population was 253.

Again, this is going to be used for a very good cause! They are starting up a music program and are in desperate need of one of each of these instruments. If you can help or know someone who can, please do let us know!

Cheers!
