The Heritage Gather showcases Indigenous culture and Western heritage through Open Rodeo, Indian Relay Racing, Ranch Scramble, Powwow Demonstrations, Buffalo Riding Cowboy, cultural craft workshops, artisan market, live music, and so much more.
With exceptional contestants and spectators, the inclusive family-focused event provides an experience that inspires people to honour and celebrate Indigenous, Albertan, and Canadian heritage.
“To me, the blending of Western and Indigenous cultures reflects who we have been for hundreds of years. Hosting events like this introduces people to new traditions and sports, creating an opportunity for everyone to come together and celebrate,” says Catherine Schnell, member and volunteer of the Dunmore Equestrian Society.
