Gentgeen 101 - Program Details:

Fall Fellowship - September 14-16, 2007 at Camp Durant - Open to SR-7B

Are you serious about Dancing and/or Ceremonies......and want to make an outfit? This is your chance at Gentgeen 101!

Prior to event you will need to work on designing your basic outfit on paper and work with an experience Lodge member. They can assist you in purchasing materials for your outfit.

We will work all day to construct your outfit. The Lodge's best dancers and cermony advisers will be on site to help you construct and teach you the "tricks of the trade". Sewing machines will also be on site.

The success of this event will be the youth and adults that want to start dancing to communicate with the proper dancers so patterns, colors, and the purchase of some materials can take place prior to Spring Inductions.
