PowWows.com Special Contest @ Red Earth

Paul G · 05-01-2006, 10:37 AM

PowWows.com is sponsoring a special contest at this year's Red Earth Pow Wow!

And you get to decide what it is! What contest do you want to see?

The contest needs to be one that is open to men and women and have an individual winner. Other than that, we are open to all contests!

Post your suggestions here by May 13. Then we'll post a poll with all of them to let you decide which contest we will sponsor at Red Earth!

Thanks!

GON just did a smoke dance, so maybe not that....

**walela49** · 05-01-2006, 12:24 PM

or an all-around.......

i can see northern vs southern, that can be men versus woman too. I remeber at Schemtizun they did American vs Canandian too.

Paul G · 05-01-2006, 12:58 PM

Some of the ideas I had were a Trick Song, Fancy Feather vs. Fancy Shawl, or 5 song no stop endurance contest.

What styles?

**walela49** · 05-01-2006, 01:21 PM

are you wanting a contest that is really specific?...I'm thinkin that would require some pre-powwow advertising so you're sure to get more than just a few contestants

a more general contest like round dance or 2-step can be announced last minute and still have lots of contestants

Singing Contest. Old School Northern vs. Contemporary Southern

I think people will sign up for something fun like Trick Song once they are there.
