Does anyone have the latest (if any) information for this powwow?

[xTekno]

I have some preliminary info, but ... I don't want to have a similar situation as with the Gallup Ceremonial where they did a complete 180 degree turn, so I'll chill until the committee posts the head staff themselves.

i hope they don't give the dancers the shaft like they did last year when they made them choose a number from a hat??? thats kinda unfair??

[xTekno]

EyeNoHuh?

The spotlight contests weren't performed like they should've been! They were more like "special contests" with a spotlights roaming around the contestants rather than having one contestant up at a time. I think that's why Bill Haze is in charge of the committee this year. He wasn't there last fall. I'll mention this "draw from a hat" situation and see if he can come up with a better way or let all the contestants that sign up be in the spotlight contests.
