Walk Into History

FY 2024-25 · 2025-03-25

Summary
Pelican Lake First Nation proposes to promote less use of vehicles by creating pathways to support walking and cycling. Its project name will be a " walk into history" this is symbolic of the location of the trails in both Clear Water Lake and within Pelican's currently developed elders' village and where the elders lodge is located. Both locations are used by the land based educators for both the elementary and high school in PLFN. Clear Water Lake is a part of the PLFN business venture of the Chamakese resort, PLFN outfitters. This business provides tourist services, cabins, fishing and this location also provides cultural and socio-economic benefits. The proposed trail in the community of PLFN is estimated at 5km with required culverts to address flooding and to install benches, fruit trees to support culture, picnic tables, barbeques for community gatherings and fencing to avoid use of motorized transportation. The trail in Chitek Lake is estimated at 8km. This trail requires clearing and to be gated to ensure this path is used only for walking cycling, scooters and wheelchairs.

Description (French)
La Première nation de Pelican Lake propose de promouvoir la réduction de l'utilisation des véhicules en créant des sentiers pour favoriser la marche et le cyclisme. Le nom du projet sera « Marcher dans l'histoire », ce qui symbolise l'emplacement des sentiers à la fois dans le lac Clear Water et dans le village des aînés de Pelican, actuellement développé, et où se trouve la loge des aînés. Ces deux endroits sont utilisés par les éducateurs terrestres de l'école primaire et de l'école secondaire de la PNPL. Le lac Clear Water fait partie de l'entreprise commerciale de la PNPL du centre de villégiature Chamakese, la pourvoirie de la PNPL. Cette entreprise offre des services touristiques, des cabanes, des activités de pêche et des avantages culturels et socio-économiques. Le sentier proposé dans la communauté de PNPL est estimé à 5 km avec les ponceaux nécessaires pour faire face aux inondations et pour installer des bancs, des arbres fruitiers pour soutenir la culture, des tables de pique-nique, des barbecues pour les rassemblements communautaires et des clôtures pour éviter l'utilisation de moyens de transport motorisés. La longueur du sentier du lac Chitek est estimée à 8 km. Ce sentier doit être débroussaillé et clôturé car il a été utilisé par des véhicules à quatre roues et d'autres modes de transport. L'objectif est de s'assurer que ce sentier est utilisé uniquement pour la marche, le vélo, les scooters et les chaises roulantes.
