The Lax-4-Life Camp is an annual summer camp put on by the Brookston Community Center on the Fond du Lac Reservation, in partnership with the Indigenous Lacrosse Alliance.
Developed in 2009 to promote wellness among Indigenous youth, campers participate in a number of sessions designed to promote physical fitness, nutrition, social and emotional health in addition to learning lacrosse skills and concepts. Past highlights from camp include traditional lacrosse game(s) and a capstone banquet.
Tribal and urban Indian communities that have attended Lax-4-Life in the past include: Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, Prairie Island Indian Community, Oneida Nation, Little Earth of United Tribes, Lac Courte Oreilles Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, Grand Portage Reservation, White Earth Nation, Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe, Red Lake Nation, Navajo Nation, Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah, and Ho-Chunk Nation.
