The Nain HOPE Walk will be going ahead this coming weekend.
Rutie Lampe is the Mental Health and Addictions worker with the Nain DHSD.
She says there are about 11 people signed up so far, for ages 16+up, as well as 1 elder.
They have 3 to 4 drivers, 1 guide and a camp manager.
They will also have a cook and a cook’s assistant.
Lampe says depending on the weather, the HOPE Walk from Nain to Iggiak is planned for the weekend of May 3-5, 2019.
The overnight at the camp is cancelled but will still be holding activities, healing activities such as throat singing, drum dancing, setting off Chinese lanterns and a burning ceremony.
They will also have land based activities such as jigging and boil ups.
Lampe also adds that she is looking forward to this HOPE Walk and hope the weather cooperates.
