Pow WOW!

(Page 11)

By Todd Curran
Eden Valley hosted a Contest Pow Wow over the September 17th to 19th weekend, drawing Native dancers, drummers and vendors from around Alberta to compete for over $30,000 in prizes.
The “Everyone Welcome” celebration featured competitions in Native dance and a variety of traditional and modern music, with some rock tunes performed by a band called Back To The Blanket from Chief Jacob Bearspaw School. The family friendly atmosphere invited all people to experience Native culture in a magnificent display of vibrant regalia, athletic dance and stirring songs.
