Congo Camp 2010

One of the animal masks made by our campers.

When it comes to exploring cultures, our Time Travelers have been at the head of the line learning about the various peoples of the world.

Today, these campers learned about Guro Animal Masks which originated from the Guro Tribe of the Cote D'Ivoire. 

Each camper selected what animal they wanted to represent, then decorated their masks with skill to show these animals.  Quite a few of them were able to capture the essence of the animals they were representing and developed masks that were strikingly similar.

We know these campers are prepared for the many travels that await them during the second week of session 4.
