Hazen Shepherd Fancy Dance special

1st Jazz Bearstail
2nd Spike Draper

and the Heyoka's came out during the honor song for this special. Any drum in the arbor that was "flat" was whistled up by them, and any drum left unattended had its sticks thrown.

Mandaree pulled out an old Ponca ruffle for the final song of the special.

480 registered at Saturday night grand entry. Most people at the Sisseton powwow are at Red Lake right now, except those of us who have to work this week.
