If you are interested in attending a local moon ceremony please e-mail for more information. We have included month names in both Western and Eastern dialects although it should be noted that many people in different areas use different names for these or different names based on what they observe happening in their region. The Eastern dialect names are taken from the Wikwemikong Heritage Organization.
