Łuqa Camp
Łuqa Camp has been established to teach and preserve the cultural and traditional subsistence way of life that was established by the early Dena'ina. Traditionally this way of life was handed down to the children from the Elders of the Tribe. Elders and youth work together to harvest the fish at the Tribe's Waterfront and other traditional sites.
