Indigenous Peoples Day celebrations will be marked by dance, signing
The Battlefords will be alive this Friday, dancing to the joyous beat of the drum and the rhythmic jangle of jingle dancers as the community comes together to celebrate National Indigenous Peoples Day.
The day is an opportunity to look back on history and further advance the cause of Truth and Reconciliation with several events planned throughout the area.
The theme for Indigenous Day 2019 is the Cree word for ‘courage to face the foe with integrity.’
Activities are planned for downtown North Battleford, at Fort Battleford and the Gold Eagle Casino.
