This weekend experience Native American history, culture, and lifestyle first-hand as the Great Mohican Pow-Wow returns for its 35th year.
On Saturday, and Sunday,, Mohican Reservation Campground and Canoeing will be busy with traditional Native American ceremonies and activities. Rated as a top 100 show in the United States, this event is taking place this weekend .This is an event for the entire family. Pow-Wow time is the Native American people’s way of meeting together, to join in renewing old friendships and in making new ones. This is a time to renew thought of the old ways and to preserve a rich heritage. Note that this is a real pow-wow, not a hobbyist show.
