Uncle Rick's Reconciliation Week Tour- Thursday May 30th
Event description
Join Uncle Rick on this tour held during Reconciliation Week. This years theme is 'Now More Than Ever'. Uncle Rick is a strong advocate for black and white coming together to do the connecting and healing work this land needs.
During this tour on Djaara Country in the Castlemaine region you will visit significant trees and sites in the area that Uncle Rick has specifically selected.
A Welcome To Country and Smoking Ceremony is part of this tour as a cleansing to ensure you walk with good spirit.
This tour starts at the Castlemaine Market Building at 10am.
Meet us on foot out the front at Mostyn St entrance and the Uncle Rick bus will pick you up and return you to same location at approx 2pm.
We HIGHLY recommend leaving time before or after the tour for a visit to the Boorp Boorp Boondyil exhibition inside the Market Building.
It gives residents and visitors a chance to walk through an interactive space, where they will learn the history of the area. It features the story of the Eagle, the Bat and the Crow, the Creation Story of the Dja Dja Wurrung in the Mount Alexander region, as told by the Nelson family.
