Pow Wow Poarch, Alabama Thanksgiving Day 2009

Another year at the local Poarch Creek Indian Reservation Thanksgiving Day Pow Wow. This turned out to be a great year. Thanks to all of the dancers, pow wow commitee, local sponsors, the Poarch Creek Indians, and everyone else who made this possible. It's always a great pleasure in seeing the traditions kept alive. Hope you enjoy and fav and rate my vids. And remember to give God the thanks for giving us a beautiful day to come together.

Ever since we left Kansas in 1999 we have missed going to pow wows, and haven't gone since. Now we live in Mobile and so this year, we'll definitely come to this one.

thanks for the post. Was the roasted corn good this year? yum! Did anyone perform traditional Creek stomp dances?

[cvte2]

I only see one non-native comment on here. The rest of us who commented are Creeks from Alabama! What are you?

well it's just an observation.. Powwows are good but it's the Drums who make it Great.. if they are good... Good drum.. great powwow.. bad drums kill the spirit.. I am A singer.. and I am NATIVE , sorry if I offended anyone..

Yea I agree cvte2 with your comment but there are TWO non-native comments counting potbellypublix although it isin't a rule that you have to be native to comment but like you said we are Creeks from Alabama and have been to MANY of these pow-wows there in Poarch and I wonder how many of the pow-wows potbelly has attended?? I'm sure our friend hitmantlp would agree with us and I shared this video with habibali82 and you don't have to be a Native to comment.

I like the non-Natives comments... so funny.. just keeping it real..
