Message:: [QUOTE="SBSVC, post: 161282, member: 136"]When I first saw it I thought Boy Scout Camp 1940s - 50s... Cluttered, when I first saw it, I thought of the day camp I went to in the early 1960's! In a way that would be considered very un-PC today, the camp had some 20 "tribes" - groups of same-aged boys or girls, each "tribe" with a Native American name. At 5, I was a "Seneca"... at 6, a "Cayuga"... at 7, a "Cherokee"... (You get the idea.) I recall artwork like Tyeldom's plaque hanging in the main lodge at the camp - the huge building where we had arts & crafts, movies on rainy days, etc. The arts & crafts leaders were always making "Native American" stuff ("Indian kitsch," as Taupou called it) to add to the decor. I guess you could say that we just didn't know better in those days.[/QUOTE]
