The group visited Turning Stone Resort and toured the Ray Elm Children and Elders Center, the Shako:wi Cultural Center and other Oneida Nation facilities. The visit to the Oneida Nation was one stop in New York’s Capital Region portion of a month-long tour of the U.S. designed to help the group gain an understanding of the American system of education. The tour includes becoming familiar with indigenous people and their culture.
