Mayetta

[ndneyez]

We actually got a room at the casino for Mayetta pow-wow TODAY!....lol There happened to be a cancellation when we called! Oh yeah!!!

So, who's all heading that way anyway. Haven't heard much talk about it on here. Hope it's not whack!.....lol

[native_chic_785]

The rooms booked up pretty fast at the casino, but glad you were able to get in! The committee was able to get a pretty good block this year at the casino.
If you've never been to our powwow, I hope you have a good time! It's usually pretty hot and humid though so good thing you have a room at the casino- it's just a few miiles from the pw park.

We're expecting powwow people from all over the U.S and have invited our 2008 Singing Contest champs back- Midnite Express.
(They will be in the singing contest)

Hope to see everyone in a few weeks and safe travels to all!

I'm thinking about coming up that way too. I haven't been there in years but would really enjoy going to a Northern powwow. I haven't been outside of Oklahoma for a powwow since Haskell graduation powwow last year! I'm crossing my fingers that I make it up there.
