What is water gratitude?
Earths Water was created to heal the water. Knowing that if we can take gratitude to elements of the earth we could in turn have a greater understanding to be able to speak differently to ourselves and heal. After having a conversation with our healing community of friends we wanted to create a give back to our community and chose to gather to heal the water. We picked a day to gather to heal the water by setting an intension of healing for it and giving it gratitude.
The Earth's Water cannot heal the water be achieved in isolation. It is a collective effort that requires the unity and collaboration of communities. Throughout our journey, We have witnessed the transformative power of bringing people together in a shared purpose. By gathering a community dedicated to healing the water, we have not only strengthened our collective impact but also established a space for intention-setting. Taking the time to express gratitude and set positive intentions for the water has proven to be an influential catalyst for change, not only in the external environment but also within ourselves.
Veterans Memorial Park
History: The park's land was originally part of the Detroit Masonic Country Club in the 1920s. The property was sold in the 1930s due to financial difficulties and storm damage. The village of St. Clair Shores acquired the land in 1944, and the park opened in 1945. The park was renamed Veterans Memorial Park in 2000.
Lake St Clair History
Evidence suggests that humans occupied the Lake St. Clair region between glacial advances and retreats. Paleo-Indians and later Indian families likely used the beaches and knolls for camping during hunting or trading journeys. Archaeological findings along the ancient beach line on Mack Avenue include artifacts such as stone points and fragments of clay pots, suggesting human presence and activity in the area thousands of years ago. The Crawford Knoll Site, located on the eastern branch of the St. Clair River delta, revealed bone and projectile points dating back to 1500 to 1000 BCE, indicating seasonal usage by the local indigenous population. Early French mapmakers recorded various names for the lake from local Native American tribes, including Otseketa, which emphasized the sweetness of the lake's freshwater as opposed to saltwater, Wikipedia states.

Lake St. Clair, a vital freshwater lake situated between Michigan and Ontario, has a rich history shaped by geological forces, indigenous cultures, European exploration, and industrial development. Its history continues to be explored and documented, revealing fascinating aspects of this important body of water.
