Volunteer Executive Team

Cindy Wilgosh: Executive Director

Taanshi! Cindy Wilgosh dishinihkashon (Hello my name is Cindy Wilgosh). I am the Executive Director for the North Thompson Aboriginal Cultural Centre Society, and the Aboriginal Coordinator for Aboriginal Engagement Success By 6 in the North Thompson Valley.

I have lived in Clearwater for 36 years; I am a mother, grandma, and great grandma.  I have volunteered with many organizations and service groups over the years, but my heart is with the children, making sure all Aboriginal Children grow to be proud of their Culture, First Nations, Metis, Inuit, and to seek out their ancestry.

In my role as the Aboriginal Engagement Coordinator for Aboriginal Engagement Success By 6.  My area is from Blue River to McClure, and through the Cultural Centre we continue to work within these areas, and beyond, to create Cultural awareness.

Together with volunteers from the Cultural Centre and AESB6 we conduct Connection Circles where we connect with families and children to traditional stories, crafts, singing, and drumming.

We host a variety of events, workshops, teachings, and pot lucks where Aboriginal and non-aboriginal people, are always invited and welcomed to participate.

I am looking forward to working with our community partners, members and volunteers to create our Aboriginal village and interpretive centre.

My door is always open.  

I look forward to meeting many more of you as we move forward.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, comments or ideas.
