Pow-wow 2021

   On our way back from Mic-o-say Pow-wow 2021. One of the perennial events of the tribe, usually on one of the first weekends of August.  New braves that have been tapped In summer, boys that have been in for years or adults (newly tapped or seasoned tribesman).  All are welcome to enjoy a weekend full of Mic-o-say activities, education, dance and costume contests and an overall great time. Pow-wow is the first special event that the new braves will get to experience.  It’s a n introduction into Mic-o-say where they learn some dances, costuming, and the beginnings of being a tribesman.  Conclave is usually held in early January and the main difference is that it’s held at an offsite facility.  The braves have had a number of months to get acclimated to things, begin costume work along with the chants/dances.   Feast is the last event of the year where the tribe prepares for the final weeks before summer camp. This year we had a number of new braves join us:  Max Brooks, Christian Woeh
