Canada Day Henna Tattoos
This year members of our organization who have had experience with henna gave out free tatoos to the public in rotary park on July 1st from 10:00 - 6:00. We had no idea the designs would become so popular, but soon we found ourselves taking down a waiting list of names. We must have completed over 200 designs. The demand for the tatoos was incredible, but we were happy to be able to share a piece of our culture with the community at this Canada Day celebration.
