A new Aazhaawe schedule will come into effect on April 2, 2024 and is posted below.
AAZHAAWE SHUTDOWN NOTICE
Now that the ice is off the lake, we will begin the annual maintenance process for the Aazhaawe, and it will be shut down while this maintenance is being completed.
Please be advised that shut down will occur April 15th. We are estimating the down time to be 4 weeks.
The GIFN Water Taxi will only be available to GIFN members but the Snake Island Water Taxi will make trips for non-members. This is to be arranged through their driver.
Sincerely,
Chief and Council
Chippewas of Georgina Island
2024 AAZHAAWE SUMMER SCHEDULE – Updated May 2024
In preparation for the return of the Aazhaawe, here is the updated schedule. There have been a couple of minor changes made to it. Please make sure that you throw out all April 2024 schedules and replace them with this one.
Rates will remain the same
GIFN MEMBERS: IVBC security staff have been retained by the First Nation for trip collection and as a security checkpoint. All Ferry Fee collection will be done prior to boarding the Aazhaawe and will be done by IVBC Security Staff. We accept Debit/Credit payment, as well as cash. Any verbal abuse towards IVBC staff or Aazhaawe crew members will be directed to the Georgina Island Police.
NON-MEMBERS: The Aazhaawe rates are $50 per trip due to the increased price of fuel. All ferry fees will be collected by the IVBC security staff prior to boarding the ferry. We accept Debit/Credit and cash as payment. Any verbal abuse towards IVBC staff or Aazhaawe crew members will be directed to the Georgina Island Police. Lease holders are still required to register their vehicles with IVBC security.
