Honouring Tree

The Honouring Tree was installed in Wascana Park (near the Royal Saskatchewan Museum) on August 30, 2011. It is a symbol of life, legacy and diversity; through which we remember and honour our past, our heritage and contributions and; the good and not so good times. "It gives us a sense of belonging, freedom, hope and opportunity for the future." SACHM member. Through the diversity legacy project, SACHM and its partners are building new relationships and working towards the establishment of a legacy of diversity, equality and inclusion. We have a vision of a community where: all are recognized as equal in dignity; have contribution to make; our differences are explored and celebrated and barriers that impede full participation are openly named and removed.

Celebration of  “The Newcomer’s Picnic” occurs at this site.
