A Tour of the Village of Tanana

A Tour of the Village of Tanana

In Tanana we go down to our camp and we have 49 dogs. Sometimes we have two dog handlers who feed the dogs. I help feed and water them with my mom or my friends like Natasha. After we are done feeding the dogs, we start to cut fish. I hang the fish and gut them then my mom or my grandpa fillet them. After we are done with work, we roast hot dogs and marshmallows!

The city hall is very important because people have a lot of meetings there. It is made out of wood. Kids play in the mud and run around.

This is the Tanana School basketball court. All of the kids come here and play basketball. We have our own basketball team. They are the Wolves. The Wolves travel to places and play basketball against other teams in other villages. Sometimes before they leave to go on their basketball trips we have pep rallies for them. So they get hyped up and excited to go on their trips. They always win.

The circle is a place where people could live and kids could play in the middle of the circle. The things that the kids could do is play basketball, go on the rock mountain, play in the trees, and play on the old boat carrier.

There is no running water in the circle, so makes it harder for doing stuff you do everyday. So they go to the laundromat for drinking water,laundry, and showers.

The clinic helps you if you are sick or hurt. They can also Medic-vac you to Anchorage or Fairbanks.

The Elder Center is where elderly people stay and have conversations.
Sometimes people go and visit their family. The Elders are important to the community.
