A Small Northern Ontario Community near the North Shore of Lake superior; rumoured to be Ojibway for "wild Goose". Known for its large plaster gooses erected around town. Home of NHL players Denny Lambert and Chris Simon. Originally Wawa was a trading post untill it became a gold mining town when William Teddy discovered gold in Wawa Lake. Other substances such as iron ore have also previously been mined from different sites in and around the Wawa area.
