Project Description Country: USA Location: Lander, Wyoming Total Budget: $5,000 Area of Focus: Maternal and child health Activity Type: Health: General Summary: 500 Summer Adventure Bags of Learning Activities for Personal Wellness for Shoshone and Arapahoe Children Identified Needs: School teachers and the school librarian on the reservations observe that the children's engagement in personal wellness activities and reading declines over the summer for children ages 3-14 in Shoshone and Arapahoe tribes. The items provided are selected by the Ft. Washakie school librarian with great care to ensure they are culturally sensitive and age appropriate. Examples: 1. Hygiene: hair brush, toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, mirror. 2. Books: Age and culturally appropriate books on health 3. Fun activities: Bubbles to learn deep breathing exercises; beach ball to kick around for pre-school children; frisbies and jump ropes for other children; balls; coloring books and crayons/pencils. There is a secondary benefit to the project in providing books to the children which they can keep in their homes, instilling a sense of pride of ownership. The books support continued reading and increased connection between and people in the parental roles or caregivers. Trust relationships are supported through activities that caregivers and children can do together. Health tips (such as brushing teetch) can also be extended to the family. How Funds Will Be Used: Funds will be used for the bags and the contents. Complimentary items are sought such as toothbrushes from dentists, etc. Partners: The Lander Rotary Club partners with the Ft. Washakie School Librarian and members of the Riverton Rotary Club in this project. The school librarian is key because she identifies appropriate materials, distributes materials through the summer bookmobile and assists with collecting evaluation data.

April 1, 2024 A new budget has been uploaded. The site for the project has been changed to a summer camp for the Arapahoe tribe. This is a positive change as it will permit more interaction between club members and campers. This change did impact the items that will be purchased and that is reflected on the budget.
