This program continues on a year round basis. We hope you will attend our show, usually the third Saturday in July. Music and drumming are provided for entertainment. A lot of crafts are displayed and are for sale. Admittance is always free. Pow Wow Our big event every year is our annual "Pow Wow" always held on the first weekend in August. Make your plans to attend, never an admission charge. Donations gratefully accepted. The Grounds Visit our beautiful grounds surrounded by the famous Willoughby River. You will be able to feel the Spirit of this place, enjoy the Peace and Serenity that surrounds the site. One can hardly believe it until they experience it. Wa-Baum Drum In 1998, we decided to build our own "POW WOW" Drum. Two moose hides were purchased, a new cedar core was donated to us and our group built its own drum, Many hours went into this. Lessons were given to a large group so that we have a good core of trained drummers to draw on . Our drum has both men and women. Much entertainment has been had by all and a great amount of spiritual development has gone on within our clan. The Drum has been a great addition!
