I could not find any information about it on the website or otherwise, but there is a stone circle created as a place for honouring Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) on the grounds outside. There is a vigil held here every year in October where everyone is welcome. I interpret the placement of this stone circle on the RCMP Heritage Centre grounds as a step towards truth and reconciliation, and an attempt to repair a strained relationship created by a history of terrible treatment of Indigenous people by police.
