The ODAWA District is named after the Odawa Nation whose past included trading along the Ottawa River, throughout the Great Lakes and down the Mississippi River. In more recent times, the Odawa Nation joined forces with the Ojibwa and Potawatami Nations to form the "Council of Three Fires". The Ojibwa are the "keepers of the drum", the Potawatami are the "keepers of the pipe" and the Odawa are the "keepers of the fire". This history is reflected in our ODAWA badge which is worn above the Voyageur Region crest. |
