INITIATION! Gallery
INITIATION! is a four day, three night coming-of-age event for young men ages 13 to 17. It’s physically, emotionally, and mentally challenging and calls out the man within the boy. Full of ceremonies and attention to honor, respect, and integrity, the young men also learn to handle their grief and rage. Here are some photos from one day of the event where young men test themselves on the Obstacle Course. All photos courtesy of David Drewry.
