This area was prairie, where Native Americans constructed portable and temporary tepees for housing. At first, they sought lodgepole pines for their tepees from the Kawuneeche Valley. Students lived in tepees and worked by tending the orchards and gardens. The women tanned and prepared the skins to cover the tepees. All parts were used for clothing, tepees, etc. Local units are called "Councils" and meeting places "Tepees". The girls' first task is to set up their tepees. The cast wore their own clothing and brought their own personal items, including tepees. Overnight stays in tepees, and workshops for adults and children may be booked here.
