ST. THERESA
POINT
One of my very favourite BUNTEP classes
at St. Theresa Point.
I was the coodinator from 1991 to 1994 and taught
some courses there.
I also supervised the students' field experience
(student teaching practice)
in the three Island Lake communities.
This is one of me waiting for my boat taxi ride to Wasagamack,
one of the places served by the BUNTEP centre at St. Theresa Point
in the early 1990s.

STP Spring Breakup Ride
|
In the early 1990s, we had to take a boat taxi pulled by a snowmobile
to get to the post office in the Bay
(Hudson’s Bay Company store) on St. Mary Island at St. Theresa Point.
One of our students, Bertha Flett, shared this trip during spring break
up.
A minute later the Skidoo broke through the ice, the driver hopped
off and retrieved the machine.
We resumed the ride, flying over cracks in the ice, and bouncing from
floe to floe
until we reached the ten-foot plank that we had to walk to get to the
shoreline.

Our float plane had a leak in a pontoon at Pukatawagan but it was soon
repaired.
The Churchill River is punctuated at intervals by some creative
lichen scraping.
This example is downriver from Pukatawagan.
