alright Miss Hallie how will you promote powwows.com?

halliekassars

I will promote powwows.com by always putting a good word out. Not only at powwows but every day, weather its on facebook myspace and any other site on the net. I will also tell people that I know about it! I will always put my best foot forward!

Most, if not all of us, have run into situations where we faced stereotypes about Native Americans or incorrect information about Native American culture.

Please describe an experience you had that involved such a stereotype or misinformation and how you handled it.

Good luck with the contest.

What kind of regalia do you wear when you particpate at powwows? And Why?

halliekassars

Around here there are many situations like that. My family and I do a lot of educational programs. Not too long ago, we were at a program for the boy scouts, and some of the boys were walking by and making rude comments and making rude noises. I heard the things they were saying and explained to them that the things they were saying were uncalled for. They were making fun of the dances and I explained to them the reason we danced.

Thank you.

I am a jingle dress dancer. I enjoy my dance. I also dance for the people. I dance for those who can't dance anymore, those who need the prayers, those we have lost, and those who are coming up. I chose to accept all the responsibilities and actions that came with my choice in dance.

Hello! As a former tribal/pow wow princess myself, I know the obligations it would take to represent your respective tribe or organization. It takes time and some sacrifices to be able to travel to various pow wows and functions.

My question is: Do you have a family support system that will help in your reign as Powwows.com Princess?

Also, other than the obligations set forth by the Powwows.com Committee, do you have another particular platform that you will support?

Good luck!

thank you!

Yes my family supports anything I do and we go to many powwows a year!

and I might sound really dumb right now but, i didnt really understand the last part! can you Clarify?

ac_miss

It's not a dumb question at all, so don't beat yourself on that. If you don't ask, then you'll never know the answer.

Do you have any causes that you will focus on throughout your reign? If so, what are they?
