Cama'i Dance Festival

We spent a cultural weekend in Bethel, celebrating Gary's birthday in March. There were dance groups from villages around the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. Each group includes drummers, singers, female dancers, standing, and male dancers, kneeling.
We were surprised that we knew some of the performers from village schools in the area. Every dance group included children. To view video footage click Cama'i Dance Festival on our links and click on 2008 Group Index. You might enjoy hearing the Yupi'k language spoken and sung.
