pow wow


Drake's school had a pow wow one afternoon. All the kids (and teachers and some parents) from the school sat outside in a big circle, setting the stage for the dancers.

These are the dancers waiting to get started.

I like all the bright colors.



My high school would have pow wows for our assemblies sometimes, so it brought me back a little.

This little girl in the yellow was fun for me to watch. She mostly just walked around and did her own thing.

She was really cute though.

They crowned the new Indian Princess for the next year.

I really enjoyed watching and listening to it all.

I'm glad Drake gets to experience some culture.

This was the sound system, and boy did they have some lungs.

We just sat on the grass and watched.


Drake really wanted to sit by his teacher, and Graham eventually joined him.

And in case you're interested, here are a couple videos.

This one is at the very beginning when they first started.

And this is just a quick live shot at the end, after they had invited everyone to get up and join in the dance.

Fun stuff.
