National Day for Truth and Reconciliation Planning Committee
Since 2017, various community groups from Melfort have come together to recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Although the format has changed slightly over the years, the event always included elders, drummers, and a community activity, such as a round dance or walk.
