Coordinator says the venue and the number of people participating are humongous now.
THUNDER BAY — Many from in and out of town flocked to the CLE Coliseum Building for the Family Day Powwow’s third year.
“I’ve danced grass dance all my life because that’s what my late grandfather taught me and he was from Lake of the Woods, Kenora area,” said Fiddler. “They’re all magnificent dancers. They show a style that they made, based on what they’ve been taught from other people: the people that taught them,” said Fiddler.
“They’re on their journey to whatever path they’re on to heal and it might be for themselves, it might be for their kids, might be for their parents, it could be for anybody, so they’re all healing out there. They’re all dancing for their own reasons and for a one day event like this it’s a great thing.”
“We’re able to showcase different kinds of vendors now, whereas before, we only had a certain group,” said Simard.
