A community based event with speakers from across Turtle Island. As a guest, you will also experience land-based learning, hands on workshops and foraging. We will honour Truth and Reconciliation Day in the best way possible, with a demonstrative community gathering featuring drumming, singing, jiggling, fiddling, dancing, an artisan walk and community BBQ feast. And, if you can fit it in, a round of golf on our championship golf course.
