An Elders Lodge on the Aroland First Nation is closer to reality.
A ground-breaking ceremony is taking place today.
The building will cost in excess of $20.5 million and funding will come from the Green and Inclusive Community Buildings program.
When complete the Elders Lodge will be a net-zero carbon building and offer 20 private suites.
A community feast will follow the ground-breaking ceremony.
