Let Lakota kids be kids, while learning their culture

Swimming, baseball and bike riding are all fun summer activities for children around the United States. The Lakota had games and activities unique to their culture. But, with time, many of these traditions have been lost.

Lakota elders and other respected individuals share their unique knowledge of culture and traditions with the Native American children at St. Joseph's Rising Eagle Day Camp. Your gift helps provide these special visits and hands-on learning experiences for children escaping the hardships of their reservation community.
