Hawaiian Inside Tracking Project Hawaii
U'i Camp for Girls Led by Brother Noland
March 15 - March 17, 2010
An outdoor overnight experience connecting girls with the natural environment, tracking and indigenous knowledge.
About the Experience
Using nature and the outdoors as the teacher, the U‘i Camp provides girls with the opportunity to make contact with the ocean, the land, and the natural world around them. Through hands-on experiences, camp participants will learn about the science and art of tracking, the indigenous native method of using all of your intelligences in a multi-dimensional way. Self-awareness, personal development, cultural and nature awareness, and survival skills are cultivated as a part of this unique and rare opportunity that connects contemporary girls with traditional teachings and knowledge.
About Brother Noland
Renowned as a talented musician and cultural educator, Brother Noland has also worked extensively with the youth of Hawai‘i partnering with a number of organizations including Kamehameha Schools, Boys and Girls Club of Hawai‘i, University of Hawai‘i, Pacific American Foundation, Palama Settlement, Myron Thompson Academy, and the YWCA of O‘ahu.

did you know?
In 1927, Dr. Theodore Richards, former Principal of Kamehameha Schools, envisioned a community center where people of all races could come together as "one blood" or "kokokahi". In a time when it was the custom for communities to be segregated by race, Kokokahi was an unprecedented effort to breakdown racial barriers. The YWCA national committment to eliminating racism is in close harmony with Dr. Richard's vision and ensures our programs and services are inclusive and mindful of the dignity of others.
