If you're a fan of Chicken Dancers, you're going to have to keep your eye out for this young man from Saskatchewan. Jamon Paskemin (Sweetgrass First Nation) has been chosen as Head Man Dancer at Gathering of Nations, the world's largest pow wow taking place this weekend!

What a great honor to help lead the dancers during Grand Entry.

Paskemin is also hosting the Men's Chicken Dance Special for dancers 16+. You'll have to tune in on PowWows.com to watch the livestream if you're not in New Mexico to see it in person!

Gathering of Nations takes place April 27th-29th on the pow wow grounds at the Tingley Coliseum / Expo NM in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
