PowWow in Cody

Posted on June 21, 2009 by Leslie

This weekend is the Powwow at the Buffalo Bill Historical Center in Cody.  It was my first powwow, if you don’t count the one I stumbled upon when I was 17 in Montana, and it was great fun.  All the colorful costumes, dancers from old to young in all different categories of dance, from fancy to traditional, competing.  I had no idea what a powwow was.  It is like a gathering of family, friends, and different tribes, dancing and having fun.  We should all dance more.

Here are a few highlight photos.
