Big Bay Pow-wow: Embezzlement!!
This pow-wow was hosted by the town of Big Bay, MI. The local townsfolk were very cordial, friendly, and fair! This was not the case for some of the Big Bay pow-wow committee.
Specifically, the pow-wow committee failed to pay the bills for the pow-wow. They contracted for:
> A Host drum: Little Otter
> A Co-Host: Four Nation Singers
> two regional invited drums, Vet's color guard, head dancers, and local lodging establishments for rooms--NONE OF WHICH WERE PAID FOR THEIR TIME AND EFFORT. tHE DRUMS SANG HARD FOR THE DANCERS----ESPECIALLY WHEN IT STORMED AND THE WHOLE POW-WOW WAS HELD UNDER A SMALL PARK PAVILLION!
Overall the pow-wow was ok, but what makes it kind of suck, is that a good number of people left their families and jobs to sing for a community, and some of their members dishonor/disrespect their guests by acting as cowards and run with the money!! If you can guess I was part of one of the drums. We literally had to dig in the seats of our cars to pool enough money to get back home!!
