Pah-loots-pu Celebration (WSU Powwow at Pullman, WA)

PRO'S:
  • Free admission and free parking.
  • Lots of motels in Pullman, Moscow, Colfax, etc. (reservations several weeks in advance highly recommended)
  • NORTHERN CREE !! as host
  • RED TAIL !! as co-host
  • Good specials. The Mens Traditional "Spotlight Special" gave some of the region's best participating dancers a chance to really show off their moves, literally under the spotlight, each getting his own solo dance to the Red Tail singers.
  • Lots of other good drums and good dancers
  • Not many spectators (for its size)
  • No series of giveaways or preaching to sit through for hours on end
CON'S:
  • The sound system was a bit too loud (IMHO) and its crew didn't do so well "transfering volume" to the correct drum in time very often (each drum had its own dedicated microphone). I dunno if the dude playing Windows Solitaire at the booth's computer was supposed to be taking care of this or not.
  • No other gripes. Really. GREAT POWWOW!!
CONTEST RESULTS
This is what I copied as it was verbally announced. I did not double-check it with anyone and it does not account for any challenges or changes that may occur with the powwow committee, blah blah blah. OK now the list!
