The River Valley Alliance will be joining Talking Rock Tours on Saturday, September 28 for a special tour in honor of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. They will hike to historic and sacred sites within North America’s largest urban green space, the Edmonton River Valley. Walk in the footsteps of Indigenous Peoples who have visited this sacred gathering place on Turtle Island for the last 10,000 years. We will honour the local First Nations, Métis, and early European ancestors of amiskwacîwâskahikan (Beaver Hills House – the Nehiyawak (Cree) traditional territorial name for Edmonton) by observing tobacco protocol and participating in a smudge ceremony.
