Last month during Spring Pow-Wow we had a large gathering at the dance arbor. Many people showed up including: dancers, singers, webelos, and the Eastern Bull drum. The webelos were entertained and even learned about Native American culture while they were at it. The Eastern Bull drum did an excellent job at this Pow-Wow and so did the dancers. Here are the winners of the 2012 Spring Pow-Wow Dance Competition for Lodge 104:
Senior Northern Traditional
1st Brian Allen (Eno Chapter)
