PowWows.com Dance Contest - Need Ideas for Prizes!

Paul G · 03-05-2007, 03:36 PM

PowWows.com is going to again sponsor a special dance contest at Red Earth.

Last year we did an endurance contest and gave away 3 prizes--cruise, and 2 Pendletons.

Later this year we'll let you all vote for what the contest will be.

But for now I need ideas for prizes.

Red Earth is working on their flyers and want to put our contest on there.

So send me some suggestions.

Should we send someone on a cruise again?

I'm thinking it should be winner take all this year.

What do you all think?

Paul,

How about a cruise for first place again. That was a great prize and had everybody talking about powwows.com.

For consolation prizes, rent a limosine and take them to the 49?

Certificates for hotel room or food to help pay expenses at a future powwow?

superndngyrl · 03-05-2007, 06:23 PM

I think you should sponsor an All-Around contest!

"Tell her what she's won, Paul..."
"A neeeeeeew CAR!!!!"

Hahahaha... I wish.

I wonder if there would be any ndn artists willing to donate some prizes... I think that would be cool. That or maybe "all you can eat indian tacos." Lol, sorry, I'm easily satisfied with free food.

Seriously, Paul....

There is a new category about to emerge, but has not as of yet.

It is the "Old Style War Dance Category."

Red Earth would be the perfect place to initiate it. Expecially if it was sponsored by Powwows.com. It would have a lot of interest all around powwow country.

Think about it.

A cruise would be a good prize for the winner!

(I also like the powwow of your choice prize... but realistically, the logistics would be a nightmare and time consuming).

Ok, I'm going to start another thread to talk about what contest to have. I'd like to hear more about that style!
