I finally checked out this message board and thought maybe I should post this email so that everyone could read about it!
 In follow-up to our discussion re: the Fort trip the other day, I finally called up Mukwa teepees and spoke with Gloria. What an amazing program they have!! Tony (traditionally raised native) has actually held teepee campovers at the Fort Langley campground before. Friday nights are no problem for them, and they would have the teepees ready for us at the campground...yay! No pick up required!! The program could be worked around our schedule, but they suggested a 3:30pm start where we have the choice of helping put up the teepee's. Tony also offers botanical walks through the forest, canoe trips, and the kids will play traditional bone games and lacrosse (of the original native variety--apparently very different). We will then be treated to a evening feast of native fare around the campfire, consisting of roast buffalo (of course!!), squash, corn, etc and also a native breakfast in the morning.....bannock, I assume! The evening will consist of circle story telling, drumming and singing and she really made a point of letting me know that they will include anything into the program that interests us and fits in to what the kids are learning in class (and more!) --I bet you won't be having to correct this Tony guy on his facts! There will be a sunrise ceremony in the morning, and the programs and break-up of camp will happen after that, and we can be involved in that as well. All their staff are native and are well versed, so will be able to answer any questions the children (and parents!) may have. Their teepees range from 10 ft to 45 ft in diameter, but she suggested having maybe 3 18 ft tents for our size of group. The program (food included) is $125 per student and $135 for adults, and she promises it will be a truly unforgettable experience! She's in the process of emailing us Tony's biography (apparently quite interesting) and some additional pictures so we know what kind of amazing things to expect. Boy, I sure didn't expect all of this when I first called....they've got quite a program here. Hope this helps and we'll talk soon. Have a great day, Lisa Ranger.
