Today, on Indigenous Peoples Day, we come together to honour and recognize the vibrant culture, profound traditions, and invaluable contributions of the Indigenous people. Their rich heritage and timeless wisdom have shaped our land and continue to inspire us.
Letโs take this opportunity to further educate ourselves about the diverse histories and stories of Indigenous peoples. By embracing their perspectives and fostering mutual respect, we can advance the essential work of reconciliation and build a more inclusive future.
Join us in celebrating and supporting all Indigenous peoples and communities near and far that enrich our lives and our world.

โThe event was about more than just sport. It was about reconciliation and healing for a new generation.โ
The Warrior Relay Race is one of a kind.
The rider races bareback on thoroughbred horses and jumps from one horse to the next in each lap around a track. In total, the single rider does two transfers to three different horses in three laps. ย First to past the finish line wins.
Check it out for yourself June 30 and July 1 at Rocky Mountain Turf Club.

Lethbridge College exemplifies collaboration and reconciliation in many ways, but set the bar high with the unveiling of their new Indigenous jerseys and court for the Kodiaks in 2022.
This initiative, rooted in the meaning of their Blackfoot name, Aikowania, emphasizes body awareness, movement, and the preparedness essential for student-athletesโ success. Aikowania reminds us that clear minds and prepared bodies lead to strength and achievement both academically and athletically.
The new Indigenous logo on the uniforms and home court reflects the collegeโs dedication to honoring and learning from the Siksikaitsitapi people, celebrating their heritage and fostering a spirit of unity and respect.

Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump is known around the world for its remarkable testimony of prehistoric life. The site bears witness to a custom practiced by indigenous people of the North American plains at HSIBJ for nearly 6,000 years.
It was designated both a provincial and national historic site, and in 1981, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) designated the jump as a World Heritage Site, placing it among other world attractions such as the Egyptian pyramids and the Galapagos Islands.
Join us for Indigenous Peopleโs Day at Head-Smashed-In to immerse yourself in the Plains Buffalo Culture and enjoy a special outdoor drumming performance.
