ネイティブ・インディアン、自然保護に興味がある人!
by みーねこ from バンクーバー 2004/06/01 18:56:22

バンクーバー・ダウンタウンにある、Roundhouse Community Centreが主催しているキャンプ、Witness Programに参加してみませんか?私も以前に参加したことがあるのですが、普通のキャンプと違ってカナダならではのキャンプです。

どんなことをするのかというと、簡単に言えばファースト・ネイション(インディアンのこと)土地でキャンプをしながら自然を楽しむ。ちょっとしたセッションが含まれていて(自由参加)毎週違うのですが、昨年、私が参加した時はインディアンのダンス、物語、ブレスレット作りなどとても興味深かったです。

今年は6人ほど集めて一緒にレンタカーで行きたいと思ってます。道具はテントが2つ、料理道具も在るので寝袋持参でお願いします。

興味のある人、質問のある人はメールにて。
