2009 Shuswap Gathering
Submitted by neskie on Fri, 2009-06-05 10:03http://www.shuswapband.net/cal_calendar.html
Seventeen Shuswap Bands will gather in Invermere from July 24th to 26th, 2009.
The Annual Shuswap Gathering originated from the Shuswap Declaration signed by all 17 Shuswap Band Chiefs and/or representatives on August 20th, 1982, with a mandate to work in unity to preserve the Shuswap language, history and culture.
The gathering is an opportunity for the stories and legends of the elders to be heard and to hear the Secwepemc (Shuswap) language spoken.
