Language Camp is a week-long event geared towards tribal member youth ages 5-12, where they will visit 8 stations during the day participating in language and culture rich activities based on the traditional story.  This year we chose “Mink and his younger cousin Tetyika” as our focus.  Camp will be hosted at the Kenny Moses Building, and will run between 10am and 3pm (transportation is responsibility of family), lunch and an afternoon snack will be provided. Our staff prepares materials for 50 youth per camp, where they will be split into 5 different groups that they will stick with each day of the week, moving from station to station.

Week One Participants – July 8^th ~ 12^th

Week Two Participants – July 15th ~ 19th
