The letter was sent by members of the Muskoka Indigenous Collective Powwow Committee, which includes Lynda Nicholson of the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan First Nation, Jacqualeen Beaver of the Six Nations of the Grand River and Christopher Stock of Wahta Mohawk Territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The letter requests the Town council waive the fees for park rental.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis would be tremendously helpful in getting this event up and running and help us in this process of starting a journey together, in a good way, towards truth and reconciliation,\u201d reads the letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The group explains that the waterways of the region have served as resting grounds, meeting places, harvesting camps and an area of trade for millennia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnnie Williams Park on the shores of the Muskoka River, we feel is the perfect site for our cultures to respectfully come together to celebrate and enjoy See Muskoka Through Our Eyes annual traditional Powwow,\u201d it reads. \u201cThere is one common factor that holds true, there is something special about this area known as Muskoka. What greater way to bring us all together to celebrate Indigenous Day, Canada Day and the Summer Solstice in a peaceful and harmonious way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any potential consideration of the fee waiver will need to be brought forward and approved by Town Council.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Discover Muskoka, the event will include live entertainment, workshops, demonstrations, speakers, and presentations, as well as artisans and hand-crafters showcasing their work. There will also be a&nbsp;community social event on Saturday night from 7 pm to 10 pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please note that this is a&nbsp;family-friendly event and is alcohol and drug-free. Only service animals will be allowed on the premises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event will run on&nbsp;Saturday from 10 am to 10 pm and Sunday from 10 am to 4 pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to bring your own lawn chair!<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Local residents will get the chance to experience First Nations culture during the first-ever See Muskoka Through Our Eyes traditional powwow.
