Upcoming

iinuu metawewin (Cree Games)

The Cree School Board is extremely proud to be hosting the iinuu metawewin (Cree Games) in Mistissini during the week of March 24 to 28, 2025. We will be welcoming delegations from across Eeyou Istchee in this wonderful celebration of iiyiyiuiyihtiwin and iiyiyiuyimuwaawin.


More detailed proposals will be published in the coming months. Should you need more information, please don't hesitate to contact:

Out of transparency and equity, we may publish questions we receive for specific proposals, though we would not identify who they are from.

Throughout the event, we will require specialized services

We will be posting the formal proposals starting in December. Needs and modalities mentioned below are general orientations being considered and may be subject to changes. Meanwhile, we would like to share some of the service proposals we will be requiring therefore potential providers can begin preparing.

Catering services

We will require catering for breakfasts, lunch, suppers and snacks for our guests. We would likely need between 500 and 700 meals a day as well as 700 to 1000 snacks. Adaptations may be required for delegates with allergies or food restrictions.

Bus Transportation

Busing will be required for initial and final pick ups at the Chibougamau airport. This would likely include transportation from nearby communities for their delegations.

Local Transportation Services

Local transportation of elders and some delegates will be needed, including adapted transportation.

Logistical Services

Services for the setting up of facilities (for meals, entertainment, clean-up, event support) will be required. This could include security services.

Cultural Knowledge Keepers

Throughout the event, we will need knowledge keepers to help set up cultural areas and activities. This will include the gathering of tent poles, boughs and walking paths, to name a few.

Artists and Entertainment

We will provide entertainment and have areas for the sale of Cree arts and crafts.
