THE AAMJIWNAANG NATION 51ST. ANNUAL POW WOW

What a day

Joe and I attended a Pow Wow which took place just outside the town of Corunna

Our great nephew and great niece were attending their first Pow Wow as dancers

The Colour Guard


The eldery and young joined in


Our niece


Waiting his turn


The moccasins were completely beaded


Different headdresses


This headdress was more like what I would see on a biker


It was very hot and sunny
I thought she must be terribly warm


The jingle dance


Swish Swish





Our great nephew dancing


Mother and son


Beautiful regalia


This was a neat headdress
A few feathers in his cap


Our great niece


Swish again

Mother and daughter


This little girl was upset
She had her hands over her face
however
she could look through her fingers
It was sweet to watch her


The family danced for the first time at their
Pow Wow



It was an amazing afternoon
We were so very proud of all of them

IT WAS A GRAND DAY
