ROWING TOGETHER GALA AND THE HYATT REGENCY

News Update: Rowing Together Gala & Hyatt Regency Vancouver

As we prepare for the upcoming Rowing Together Gala on September 24, 2025, we want to take a moment to share important context about this year’s host venue, the Hyatt Regency Vancouver.

In the spirit of transparency and relational accountability, Len Pierre Consulting (LPC) has provided a statement regarding the Hyatt’s journey of learning, growth, and commitment to Indigenous cultural safety. (Click on the image above) Their words reflect both the challenges of the past and the meaningful steps being taken toward change.

At BCIHS, we are grateful to LPC for offering this perspective, and we stand alongside our partners, community members, and supporters in approaching this event with openness, reflection, and hope.

We invite you to read the full statement from Len Pierre Consulting, , and to join us at the Rowing Together Gala as we honour our urban Indigenous heroes and celebrate community resilience.
