About the event
Canandaigua Treaty Commemoration
At several of our region churches, we have been acknowledging the Haudenosaunee nation for several months now, and encouraging each other to learn more about them. Now we have an opportunity to do so!
On Saturday, November 11, we will join with the Creation Collaborative of the ABC-RGR region, on a field trip to Canandaigua. We will celebrate and learn about the Canandaigua Treaty, which took place in 1794 between the US and the Iroquois (Haudenosaunee) nation, and is still in effect today.
2:00 PM Commemoration of Canandaigua Treaty, on the front lawn of the Ontario County Court House, 27 N. Main St., Canandaigua, NY

There will be a carpool leaving from Greece Baptist Church, 1230 Long Pond Road, at 1:00pm.…
