Moose Hide Campaign Day May 14, 2026 (We're still singing!)

The Moose Hide Campaign is an Indigenous-led grassroots movement that invites all Canadians to take a stand against gender-based violence by honouring, protecting, and supporting women, children, and all those along the gender continuum.

Rooted in ceremony, respect, and accountability, the Campaign centres the moose hide pin as a symbol of personal commitment and a catalyst for meaningful conversations.

Join Renate and members of Trinity’s Affirming & Inclusivity Team on Thursday, May 14^th from 12:00 noon to 5:30 pm in the Fellowship Room.

We will watch the Rally in Toronto from 12:00 noon to 1:30 pm.

At 2:00, there will be singing.

Renate is registered in a workshop called Cultivating Safe Spaces at 4:00 so that's what we'll be watching until 5:30.

Then we can go home to catch the breaking of the fast ceremony at 6:30.

Some of us will be fasting, but light snacks will be available.

Events happen throughout the day, starting at 4:00 am and ending at 6:30 pm. You are encouraged to register yourself, and to join the gathering at Trinity.

But, there is much more you can do on your own, like joining the Toronto rally at Queen’s Park. Here's a link to the website where you can get more information, and where you can register (for free).

Moose Hide Campaign Day is a day of ceremony and an opportunity to take practical steps for our collective journey of reconciliation. Registration is FREE to all participants!

Together, we are making a change.

While we’re not singing together in July and August, please find opportunities to sing in other places and with other people. You can always sing in your car and in your kitchen. You can accept all invitations to cottages, camping, and beach days, and do some campfire singing. Or, sing while you paddle around in a lake. Sound carries over water, so have some buddies join you if you’re not comfortable with a solo performance. Orchestrate some backyard sing-alongs if you can. Singing outdoors in the summer is an opportunity you don’t want to miss. I’ve enjoyed the free concerts in Aurora and Newmarket in the past. They have ‘tribute bands’ who perform all the hits you know, and you’ll want to sing and dance along. (would be nice if they projected the lyrics for us, because we're used to having those words now) I’ve added these concerts to my YRCC Calendar to encourage my choristers to go. I’...

My Singing Nights Start again soon: Sing-along Café Thurs. Sep. 11, 2025

Every Thursday in Newmarket Trinity's Sing-along Café

Every Thursday from 7-8:30 in the Fellowship Room at Trinity on Main in Newmarket. Singing (without microphones, without sheet music, with no pressure or judgement), snacks, conversation, it's an easygoing evening out. And, it's good for your health and well-being. Get off your couch, and sit down on one of ours.
