Conferences and Events
Join us for the Camp Ne-Schaleche! August 14-16, 2013, Great Wolf Lodge, Centralia, WA
Ne-Schaleche (formerly the Native American Women & Girls, Men & Boys Conference) in the Lummi language means "my family or my friends". The camp promotes family wellness, cultural and intergenerational learning. The gathering provides an opportunity to spend time away with family, make new friends and visit with old ones! Workshops and wellness activities focus on the return of a healthier, traditional way of living.
Over 100 youth, adults and elders from over 8 tribes participate each year! Join families and friends for three days of cultural sharing, Native games, storytelling, art, singing, dancing, swimming and more!
