Smoking Ceremony

On Tuesday 27 July the Land Development Corporation (LDC) and BMD Urban welcomed the Akeyuelerre Aboriginal Corporation to perform a smoking ceremony commemorating the start of construction at Kilgariff Estate’s Coolibah Release.

The smoking ceremony was held on site at Kilgariff Estate in BMD’s site compound. The smoking ceremony was attend by BMD Urban staff and contractors, LDC staff, His Worship the Mayor of Alice Springs Mr Damian Ryan and Acting Major Project Commissioner Hayley Richards and other Government personnel.

Reconciliation is an important part to BMD’s and LDC’s business and this smoking ceremony was a great opportunity to acknowledge and participate in aboriginal culture.

LDC thanks the Akeyuelerre Aboriginal Corporation for conducting the smoking ceremony.
