Campbell River urban gathering draws 100 Nuu-chah-nulth-aht

Campbell River, BC

Qu'asa hosted the first of five December urban gatherings for Nuu-chah-nulth-aht in Campbell River on Tuesday, Dec. 5, bringing approximately 100 people from several generations to the Thunderbird Hall.

The afternoon and evening events included culural ceremony - with singing, drumming and dancing - as well as sharing a hot meal. Updates and information from the Nuu-chah-nulth Tribal Council was also provided, with diabetes screenings to help participants identify risk factors.
