Cultural
Identity
Our main goal is to encourage our Cheyenne youth to discover their own creativity and sense of purpose and to develop leadership skills that provide an understanding of our culture, traditional values and sense of responsibility for self, others, and for our homeland.
We focus heavily on hands-on learning activities combining field trips, peer led projects, presentation campouts, and lock-ins.
Exercise and Activities
We emphasize healthy outdoor activities and exercises whenever possible.
​
We also teach healthy eating habits and provide nutritional snacks or meals.
Good Road of Life Curriculum
Designed for club members between 12 -14 years old, this program helps to meet the special character-development needs of younger adolescents at a critical stage in their life.
​
This program takes place annually at the summer Bear Butte camp in South Dakota.
Day Trips & Summer Camps
The Boys and Girls Club offers summer day camps to various Cheyenne land sites, to give club members opportunities to learn stories and traditions from Cheyenne elders.
