I attempted to add this onto the Calendar but to no avail, it didn't post. I tried like 3 times!! Ugh. Sooooo just adding this here. Please pass the info along to anyone who is interested to come!!

Anyone attending, this year the Toys for Tots is enforcing their registration requirements. No child will be given a toy unless they are registered. Please make sure you do this asap! Well you have until Dec 11th. Just because since there will be more children this year due to the economy and the amount of toys that are being donated. They are no longer distributing by bulk like the last few years. So register your kids...:D. The USMC is doing a great service for the families, THANK YOU USMC.....!!!!

Each group split the money.

I think the Melissa Guerraro special was:

I don't remember the winners from the Brenda Silva Grass Dance special. Can someone help me out?

Thanks to everyone that came out and supported Barry - I think this was a great powwow. Over 160 dancers and 5 drums.

To start, they advertised a $12 admission and it turned out to be $15.25 per day admission. They get dancers to be part of the Friday night music award show and they get 100 points to do that. Question:... I attended MA 2009 this weekend and must say what a disappointment that pow wow has become. To start, they advertised a $12 admission and it turned out to be $15.25 per day admission. They get dancers to be part of the Friday night music award show and they get 100 points to do that. Question: What does that have to do with the contest? NOT FAIR to people who travel to pow wow and dance their hearts out but they are already 100 points behind. Pow wow was totally boring this year... nothing special to it. However, they had Johnathon Windy Boy there as head singing judge, yet he and Haystack haven't been in territory for years but they didn't even get him to say a word or take a few minutes as MC... he is a great MC but not once did they acknowledge that. At the end of the pow wow, there was a rumour that they screwed up on the tabulating... open books??? Anyone want to check that out? And the final slap: Johnathon Windy Boy got screwed on pay. He had to rearrange travel arrangements and it cost them an additional $1,000, so the pow wow committee decided to take it out of his honorarium. How rude to treat a pow wow legend in this disrespectful manner. Manito ahbee should be ashamed of themselves!

I was only there for a few hours so I wasn't able to see as much dancing as I would have liked. I enjoyed the dancing, saw some kick-a** regalia, checked out some of the vendors. Overall, it was pretty good.

One complaint - I had the absolute worst frybread and Navajo taco that I have ever put in my mouth! I don't remember the name of the vendor, but I'll remember the logo - and never eat there again! It was like they forgot all their spices, and then rinsed all the juice off of the beans so that everything had about as much taste as cardboard.

Other than that, had a great time! ]]> Pow Wow Talk RDNKJ http://www.powwows.com/gathering/pow-wow-talk/53782-2009-austin-powwow.html Strange powwows http://www.powwows.com/gathering/pow-wow-talk/53781-strange-powwows.html Mon, 09 Nov 2009 14:42:42 GMT Me and a few buddies of mine were discussing some of the weird things we've seen at some of the local powwows and it got me to thinking - what is the strangest or most outlandish thing you've seen at a powwow? :eyebrow2:

For mine, my husband is an EMT and works the medic stuff for most of the powwows we know. This girl was epileptic and took meds for seizures. Well she forgot her meds and started having a seizure and my husband was getting ready to call an ambulance when this guy who was a "shaman" (self proclaimed) walked over to her, put oil on his fingers and shoved it up her nose. He then grabbed her head with both hands and literally (I'm not exagerating here) said, "You are healed. You will have no more seizures." Would you believe this girl refused to go to the hospital? About three hours later, she had another seizure and he called 911.
