Fun in New Hampshire, Visiting MT. Kearsarge Indian Museum on Pow Wow Day's in Warner P-1 (Baker Home Inspection and Consulting)

Lets talk a little about Pow Wow Etiquette when visiting a Pow Wow.

You will see benches in or just outside the dance arena. These benches are reserved for the dancers. When a dancer has reserve a space on the bench they place a blanket in that space before the dance begins.
The Master of Ceremonies will announce who is to dance.
Always show respect to the flag and honor songs by standing during any special songs, stand quietly until the song is completed. One song, is The Flag Song, or may be called Indian National Anthem, this song is sung when the American Flag is raised or lowered. Please stand and remove hats during the singing of this song. It's not a song for dancing.
Be aware of anyone that may be standing behind you. They may not be able to see over you. Make room, step aside, sit, or even kneel if someone is behind you.
Pow Wows are usually a non-profit. Most of the time Pow Wows depends upon donations, blanket dances, for support. Anyone can drop money onto the blanket to aid in the Pow Wow expenses.
It's good to bring a chair with you. Most Pow Wows will not have seating for the public or enough seating for everyone. Also remember the benches in the arena are only for the dancers.
Never bring Alcohol or Drugs to a Pow Wow, they are not allowed.
If you are thinking of taking pictures, you need to ask the dancer first. Remember common courtesy and ask permission. Group photos are usually ok to take, but you may want to ask the committee first.

Remember that in each area you travel to and visit, things may and can be slightly different than the area you are from. Different groups have different customs and methods of doing things. Different is not wrong, just different. Always be respectful of the uniqueness of each and every area you may go to Pow Wow.

Dale ~ Now, I think that is something I'd like to see! I don't think I've ever seen a Pow Wow.

Dale - This is good of you to share this information. I have not ever visited your part of the country but can see there is much history. If I ever get up your way this would definitely be something to see and experience. Isn't our great U.S. a wonderful place wth tradition and experiences. How could we not be proud of our country. Thanks for this blog. Carl

Dale, This is great information. I'm sure a lot of folks have gone to a Pow Wow and were unaware that they're being disrespectful by taking photo's without permission, thanks for posting this. I love all of the extra photo's you included in the responses.

Dale - I'd love to get to your neck of the woods to experience what you write about. My kids would just love to attend a POW WOW - and with kids, it's always good to know a little etiquette first!

How often are these held? Do you attend on a regular basis?

Howdy Debbie

MT. Kearsarge Indian Museum.

Yes I do. I go to this one every year.

Missouri also.

Dale, I really enjoyed this post, I know that we have things go on like this around here and I've never attended. Now I have a really good idea of what really great stuff I have been missing all these years. Looks like I'm going to have to watch the papers so I can attend. I know my girl would enjoy it, last year she did major studying on the indians and the trail of tears and loved it.

Dale, that makes me think of the time I went to Oklahoma to the "Trail of Tears" Pageant. Respect, enjoy and learn from others. Thanks for sharing this with us!

Hi Dale,
Sounds like a fun and a learning experience. I would like that.

Howdy Bonnie

Glad to have you stopping in and commenting.

Once you have gone to a Pow Wow you will

want to go every year.

Kid's enjoy Pow Wow's very much.

Howdy Kent

Glad to have you stop by and comment.

The Trail of Tears is a very sad thing to have happen.

There's just too many wrongs yet to be righted.

Howdy Cynthia

It's good to have you stop by and comment.

Going to Pow Wow's is a real learning experience.

Have a good one

Dale - Next time we go over to Kinder, Louisiana I want to check out when they have their POW WOW. It is the Coushatta Grand Hotel & Casino where we stay and I remember one time seeing a sign with some dates for the POW WOW. Now that I haved seen your nice presentation I am anxious to attend a POW WOW.

Thanks for all your wonderful information.

My good friend

Pow Wow's are so Spiritual.

You can start feeling things you have

not felt before.

Pow Wow's can show you what life really should be about.
