Raving Native Radio!

This story chronicles the adventures of a group of youth whose parents have sent them to Band Camp at Camp Kakekwasha on the Magic Musky Indian Reservation in northern Minnesota. This is no ordinary group of 11 to 14 year-old youth. And the Magic Musky is no ordinary reservation. Things happen here that may or may not happen in the rest of the world. Who is to say what is fiction and what isn't? This story, the first of many episodes, begins the summer adventures.
