Highlights of the festival:
Storyteller Kenneth Little Hawk has a message of tolerance and respect, for all people, and for the earth, that everyone should hear. Check out his CDs and DVDs on his website and at Amazon.com and CDBaby.
The Redhawk Native American Dancers share their heritage, history and culture and put on a great show, inviting audience participation in traditional social dances. Mikro loved dancing the Iroquois War Dance, Smoke Dance, Robin Dance and the Alligator Dance (Tuscarora). He also got to handle a war club, water drum and skin drum.
Bow making and Archery Demos by Joe Taras:
Mikro makes his own fun:
What kid can resist farm animals?
There was also: Open hearth cooking demos, wampum making demos, Native American cooking and crafts displays and demos, and old fashioned games like stick and hoop and stilt walking. Unfortunately, I either shot video, or didn't have my camera handy for those things, all of which we enjoyed.
