Boys dress in traditional attire for the annual Children's Day festivities sponsored by local schools. Seated in front is an adolescent dressed as a chief. He and the two boys standing behind him (center and right) wear cloths made by strip-weaving. A boy standing left holds a linguist staff. Ahenkro, 23 June, 2009.
