For the past 23 years, the Millbrook Mi’kmaw Community have been paying tribute at the Millbrook War Memorial during Remembrance Day. Families of our Sma’knis, come to pay tribute through ceremony that includes Church Service, a March to the Memorial, laying of wreaths and tributes to all those who served. As our Veterans pass on, descendants have picked up the torch to continue what has become tradition. With the generous support of the Band Council, Health Centre and guidance from the Veterans Committee, we’re extremely proud to present this Tribute: Millbrook First Nation Remembers Those Who Served. #remembrancedaycanada #mikmaqhistorymonth #NationalIndigenousVeteransDay Today is National Indigenous Veterans Day!!!

Millbrook Celebrates Apuknajit with Food Hamper Program With funding support granted by Community Food Centres Canada, the Millbrook Early Education Centre and Millbrook Health Centre teamed up to celebrate Apuknait on Saturday, January 29th, 2022. Traditionally, Apuknajit brought ancestors together to share food, stories and to help each other through the hardest conditions of winter. In recognition of the interconnectedness of all things, ancestors honored and celebrated Apuknajit, not only praising thanks, but asking that the winter spirit be kind and provide comfort until the spring, when fishing, hunting and harvesting became less challenging. With overwhelming support from volunteers and staff, 180 food hampers were made possible for the community during one of the worst winter storms of 2022. A special thanks to everyone who made this initiative possible including representatives from Millbrook Early Education Centre, Millbrook Health Centre, Millbrook Security, Sobeys Cash & Carry, and our hard working community volunteers.
