The Thompson Urban Aboriginal Strategy and the City of Thompson are hosting events tomorrow and Friday to recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
Gina Spence with the Thompson Urban Aboriginal Strategy tells us about one of the events coming up.
“The City of Thompson is hosting a family fun night in honour of Truth and Reconciliation. Thompson Urban Aboriginal Strategy is a big supporter for this event. It’s great that organizations can come together to support each other, this is what reconciliation is really all about. We work together to empower each other and to learn from each other. Family fun night will be held at the TRCC on Thursday, September 29th from 4:30 to 7:30 and there is going to be pizza, games, and activity tables.”
On Friday afternoon there will be activities taking place at the Legion Hall and the residential school monument
