Hunt for the Golden Tokens
Wetzin’kwa Community Forest Corporation has misplaced five golden tokens somewhere within the Community Forest! We have asked for the help of some of our forest creature friends (the moose, the bear and the wise old owl) to send us some clues as to where they may be and we are expecting to hear back from them very shortly! Check the Golden Token page out on the Wetzin’kwa website for more information!
