On November 6 2021, hundreds gathered at The Turtle Lodge International Centre for Indigenous Education and Wellness in Sagkeeng First Nation to honour Elder Dr. Dave Courchene, Jr.'s Spiritual Names and his Vision of Turtle Lodge.
The National Turtle Lodge Council of Elders and Knowledge Keepers honoured Elder Dr. Dave Courchene, Jr. and his spiritual names, Nitamabit (pronounced Nittum- a-bit) - The Original Way; One who Sits in Front, and Nii Gaani Aki Inini (Leading Earth Man), in recognition of his leadership and role identified by his names, his service to the People and Mother Earth, and his work in fulfillment of the dream and vision of the Turtle Lodge to awaken, nurture and strengthen the spirit in all Peoples.

    If you are going through a change in your life, coming to this place made me feel whole. They welcomed me an outsider with open arms! I can honestly say happily that I am not the same person after going there. If you’re willing and want too, you can. I never looked back on that day. My condolences are with the Courchene family, May your spirit Rest In Peace Dave Courchene forever and eternity with our resilient ancestors 🥺🥰 And it was an honour to meet you.
