Each year in late March, most of the grade 7 students, together with a large number of staff members, parents and volunteers, travel to the north end of Aishihik Lake to participate in our Winter Culture Camp. We have been holding what we have always called the Elijah Smith School Bison Hunt for 12 years and last year expanded our title to the Winter Culture Camp to better reflect the fact that the hunt is only part of a much larger endeavour. Students also participate in netting fish in Aishihik Lake, snaring, setting up a brush campo, and many other camp-related activities. The centrepiece is still the actual hunt, but it is important to understand that we do so much more.
