Summer Day Camp: Meeting Nature Through Miwok Eyes

This class, to be held at the Lafayette Community Garden and Outdoor Learning Center, will provide an immersion into the abundant world of nature as experienced by the local Native American Tribe, the Saclans/Miwoks.

Daily, from 8:30 to 11:30am, youth and open-hearted adults will live as tribal members adopting Native American names and cultural observances. We will use what nature has provided for tools, meals, clothing and shelter. The last morning will conclude with a tribal sharing of food and ceremony with guests.

Educator, Peggy Magilen, will lead this experience, assisted by other members of the Community Garden.

The camp is geared for children ages 8 to 12 years old.
A minimum of 6/maximum of 12 youth participants; a few additional (adult) caregivers welcome.
Cost: $50 per camper to cover materials.
