Fun and Games

Throughout time, humans have played games and sports for many different reasons beyond just “having fun.” From practicing valuable survival skills to building, maintaining social bonds, and helping to pass the time, games have also served important purposes in different cultures. Indeed, many of the sports we play today, such as lacrosse and soccer, have connections to Native Americans and other Indigenous peoples throughout the world. Campers who attend this week’s session will get “serious” about playing games, making traditional toys, and creating lifelong memories through exciting adventures.
