September is here, and I don’t know if our staff have ever been more excited about the start of a new slate of programs. It has been a joy to welcome people back into the library this summer, particularly all of the children and volunteers from our Summer Reading Program. There is a fresh energy and buzz in the library these days, and we have a lot to be excited about!
The day has come and summer is wrapping up for the TD Summer Reading Club. We are so happy with how this summer turned out, we had so much fun creating and running this program. Hopefully your children enjoyed this program as much as we did!
We acknowledge Treaty 7 territory—the traditional and ancestral territory of the Blackfoot Confederacy: Kainai, Piikani and Siksika as well as the Tsuu T’ina Nation and Stoney Nakoda First Nation. We acknowledge that this territory is home to the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3 within the historical Northwest Métis Homeland.
We acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us.
We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside on or are visiting.
