History:

The roots of Wekemnayon village originate back to 1965 when Achewon Nimat Lodge was formed.  At that time, each district had a village: Golden Acorn, Live Oak, Charrowood and South were the villages associated with our districts.  Over the years the districts merged and so too did the villages.  Refer to the chart regarding the Wekemnayon merger history.

Following the lodge merger in 2021, Wekemnayon was honored with the Village of the Year at the first lodge banquet on 12/04/21. During the 2022 Lodge year, all officers came from Wekemnayon village except for the Lodge Chief.
