Pow Wow









Many of you have requested to see pictures and hear stories about our lives here in South Dakota, and specifically on the Pine ridge Indian Reservation. To answer those requests I have created this blog. I am not a big "blogger", but I will attempt to do my best at keeping this as up-to-date as possible.

Today's blog is about our Back to School Wacipi (Pow-Wow). This is an event that involves the entire community of Little Wound School (K-12). The pow-wow is a time to honor and to celebrate a new year. Many of our students dance, drum, and sing at the pow-wow. We also honor many outstanding students at this time. Teachers, especially new teachers, are honored as well.

I have included some pictures that were taken by our friend Brittany. We just
bought a new camera so we should be adding some quality pictures soon. For now, though, we will be
displaying Birttany's.
