Snow Snake: A Traditional Winter Game
Snow Snake is a traditional Native American winter game with deep cultural and historical significance. Historically, it was played by men and recognized as a medicine game, intended to strengthen spirit and resilience during the long winter months. While it originated as a men’s sport, the game is now played by men, women and children, everyone is welcome to participate. Specific customs and protocols continue to be observed as part of honoring the game and its purpose.

The snow snake itself is a hand‑carved wooden stick crafted with care and intention. Some are intricately carved, painted, or decorated, and each design carries personal significance to the individual who created or uses it. Players slide or throw the snow snake down a long snow track, aiming to send it gliding as far as possible.

Today, Snow Snake continues to be shared as both a cultural practice and a recreational sport. While its traditions remain respected, modern games emphasize learning, connection, and inclusion. 

This event celebrates community, culture, and shared experiences. It welcomes people of all identities, ages, and backgrounds who wish to participate respectfully and enjoy a meaningful winter tradition.
