The Forks' first Oral History Tour of the season was given this morning.

Through July, elders Clarence and Barbara Nepinak give oral history walking tours from St. Boniface Cathedral to the Oodena Circle at The Forks.

The tours are free. Barbara says they're open to everybody.

"We did a tour last year with the new immigrants and for them it was just like -- you know, we had so many commonalities already... and it was just overwhelming. But you know, when we come together and we share our oral history, our wisdom, and our knowledge, that's what really makes it a positive experience."

Saturdays have been added to the tour schedule, to accomodate more people. The tours now take place at 10am each Wednesday and Saturday, until July 22nd.
