Burchfield Nature and Art Center continues the tradition
The volunteers at the Burchfield Nature and Art Center have missed having the annual Treaty Commemoration Ceremony for the last 2 years. It was always such a wonderful day.
We wanted you to know that we have continued to make the public aware of the Seneca Nation history in this area. The weekend of May 15th, a group of Boy Scouts completed a project in the park to improve the area around the Commemoration area. The area has been cleaned up and planted (including a Three Sisters Garden). The white pine tree the Nation presented us with 2014 is now over 8 feet tall. A seating area has been added near the tree. A post was put in to hold a QR code that leads people to an SNI history page. Penny Minner provided us with a design that was printed onto a sign that highlights the clans.
The area is now an informative and beautiful section of the park.
We look forward to seeing you next year.
