Summertime is pow-wow time.

 

It is also a time of tradition and travelling. Many Native families will be hitting the “pow-wow trail” and vacationing. Both of these are good things to do for the obvious reasons. They are also good for the not so obvious- the need for our young people to enjoy an active lifestyle.

 

I am “old-school” enough to remember when kids played and played outdoors. Running, hideand-seek, “war” and exploring came natural.

 

Unfortunately, modern technology is making our youth more and more inclined to stay indoors watching television, playing games and “texting” on cell phones.

 

Our Native communities need to remember to engage in activities that help prevent health problems down the road, such as diabetes and obesity.

 

See you out there!
