Orange Shirt Day 2015

Cariboo RD Area 'D' Director
Steve Forseth
Today is Orange Shirt Day.  A day to remember those who survived Residential Schools and those who did not

There are events in the Cariboo today:

In Quesnel - the Orange Shirt Day event will start at 10am in LeBourdais Park

In Williams Lake - the Orange Shirt Day event will start at 10am in Boitanio Park

In 100 Mile House - the Orange Shirt Day event will start at 1pm in the Arena Ball Park

Finally - I strongly encourage you to read Phyllis Webstad's story, it is powerful.  Phyllis also serves as my Alternate on the Cariboo RD Board.  She is a very wonderful person to get to know so far and hope to learn much more from her in this term of local government
