A Voice from the Eastern Door

We Love Visitors!

Indian Time is lucky to receive many visitors every week. Whether it's a parent bringing in a new baby for a photograph or an elder who wants us to look at photos with him, our doors are always open and we love our visitors. We love them so much we want to share them with you. "We Love Visitors" series is simply a way to share members of the community with you. So, don't be scared to come and visit us (we'll only photograph those willing) but if you have something special you want to show us, tell us, or share with our readers, stop in anytime.

Our offices are located in the village of St. Regis, on Hilltop Drive, in the same building as CKON 97.3 studios.

We hope to see you soon!

Troy Thompson from MCA Economic Development and Chris Thompson from SRMT Economic Development were giving a tour of Akwesasne to Rick and Pauline MacLeod Farely of MacLeod Farley & Associates, a consulting firm focused primarily on community economic development projects. Chris and Troy are working on the cultural tourism aspect of economic development.

They visited the Akwesasne Museum, the Native North American Travelling College and many other stops and spoke to artists along the way. Rick said, "The key to the success of cultural tourism is to go step by step, take your time and make it inclusive to the community."

"We're blown away, there is so much here, so much richness and culture," added Pauline. Thanks for visiting and stop in anytime!
