Spirit Of The Eagle Round Dance

These include the Grand Entry, Flag Songs, Veteran’s Songs or any other song that the emcee designates and during these songs, men should remove their hats.

It is best to look to others in the crowd and follow along.

The outfits worn by dancers are called regalia (not costumes) and are handcrafted and cherished by the dancers.

Do not touch regalia as they are very expensive and are heirlooms to the dancers and their family.

When the Master of Ceremonies announces Intertribal and invites people down to the dance floor feel free to join and dance!

Be sure to dance in a respectful manner that is in line with Powwow dancing. Watch how other dancers dance during Intertribal to know how to follow along.

Please ask dancers, craft persons, and other before taking pictures.

If they are willing for pictures to be taken it is respectful to offer to forward the pictures to them through phone number or email.

Please respect the privacy of everyone attending the Powwow and do not disturb others experience.

For some tribes, pointing with your finger is considered very rude.

If you must indicate something nod in the direction you wish to indicate.

This is straightforward and taken very seriously.

No drugs or alcohol are allowed at Powwows under any circumstances.
