Welcome
     The world around you is about to change.   Begin listening to the heartbeat of the natural world 
around you.  Enter the time when our Earth was just a bit younger, when people were one with nature. 
A time when you were at the mercy of your environment. 

Your Mission
     For the next 10 days you and a few of your classmates will be researching one of the Native American 
cultures.  You will be a camper, visiting and participating, a scientist, observing questioning, and recording. 
Then you will be a reporter charting and preparing your research to present to others.  As you move 
through the way of life of your people keep asking yourself, "Why was this one way of doing things the way 
my Native American culture chose?"  Remember that most traditional ways are responses learned over time 
to the ways of the natural world.
