receive your application for this year's camp!!!
The Hasinai Summer Youth Camp is held each summer near the
end of June at the
Caddo
Nation Tribal Complex, Binger, Oklahoma.
The camp is open to all youth and is free to participants. During
the week, children are instructed by tribal elders and community
members in Caddo songs and dances, arts and
crafts, stomp dance, traditional games, and traditional cooking. The
evening meal every night is prepared by the students in their afternoon
classes and often includes dishes like meat and corn, habushko, fry
bread,
and grape dumplings. This camp is a wonderful opportunity for children
to reconnect with and learn more about Caddo traditions.
The Hasinai Youth Camp is funded largely by donations, fundraisers, and
the
participation of many dedicated volunteers. If you would like to help, please let us know. We are
always looking for instructors and counselors for the camp, as well as
supplies for the classes. For
to receive more
information, to donate or volunteer, or to receive an application for
campers,
contact Shirley Gouge
