Description

The objective of this study is to examine the relation between the changes of the local sport festival, which Kitamimaki Village (Nagano) has been involved for 94 years since 1906, and the social background.<br>First of all, literature on this Outdoor Games was examined. Then a survey from 16 seniors deeply involved in the festival was taken by telephone or interview on how the festival is organized and run.<br>As a result, it became obvious that Outdoor Games began as an important means for training imperialists for the war. As times past, it gradually changed to be a means of building a community. At present; however, only few citizens participate, due to changes in social background and it lacks in excitement. In such atmosphere, Kitamimaki Village is organizing many events to meet the various needs of the citizens. A further study on such government-organized event is suggested for the future, along with an examination on local sport events as a means of rebuilding the community.
