Bring a blanket or lawn chair, grab a drum to borrow on site (bring your own if you have one!) and we will head up the East Side of Nose Hill Park for a Sharing Circle at 12 noon on Sunday, May 4, 2025. We will be sharing Medicine Wheel Teachings next to the Blackfoot Confederacy Medicine Wheel, with the opportunity to make a tobacco offering at the end of our Sharing Circle (tobacco provided). Please wear a hat and bring water to drink as this is a two-hour event. Please note that this walk is weather dependent. Children and well-behaved dogs are welcome; steep walk, and challenges for those with limited physical mobility and hearing limitations.
