  • 2011-2012 Ambassador Travels(Picture/Video heavy)

    Hello everyone! As your ambassador for 2011-2012 I have had many opportunities to travel and I have traveled to all of the events I could afford to go to! Here is a collection of pictures over the past year. I want to thank everyone who has supported me throughout this journey! I have had so much fun and learned more then I ever thought I could in one year with this opportunity. I will never forget the from the moment I got asked to be the 2011 Powwows.com Ambassador(first ever)to this moment all the way to the moment my "reign" is over. It's been a once in a lifetime chance for me that I will NEVER FORGET! It was fun meeting some of you in person and while I didn't get to meet as many as I would like to everyone has been extremely supportive of me. Here is a list(with what pictures I have) of the events/powwows I was able to go to and represent Powwows.com at :-) Enjoy as I know I have! Once again Thank You goes out to everyone,without you there would not be a Powwows.com! Thank you Paul G, Amigo, Eagle Plumes, Yaahl,just to name a few! If I don't put your name on the list it is not because I forgot ya, it's because I wasn't sure if you wanted your name shared or not-you know who you are- so one last time(for this post) THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!!!

    1. Support The Troops Multicultural Event- Falkville,AL March 5th-2011- this was my first powwow of the year here is a picture of me and my mother :-) My mom and I- It was small but I did enjoy it and told several about Powwows.com many had never heard of this site.

    2. Washington State University Powwow-St. Louis,MO-April 9th of 2011- we took several pictures but sadly they didn't develop correctly so I can't post any of them. This was a very nice event!! I wasn't able to represent fully due to me having the flu(and I didn't know it) but I was sick in the bathroom when they called me up, probably a little T.M.I. for you guys but thought I would tell it :-)

    3. Annual For The People Powwow-Columbia,MO- May 27th-29th- this was a very nice event. Many things happened here that were a true blessing for me! As always I made some new friends, seen old ones and had a great time. I am sorry that the pictures are blurry but here you go :-) -Grand Entry,two stepping :-),,
    me with a lady I met up at the same event last year :-),, new friends :-),intertribal dancing, then just me :-),

    4. Sac and Fox Nation Powwow- Stroud,Oklahoma- July 7th-10th but I was only there Friday and Saturday :-)- VERY NICE event! I love Oklahoma Powwows, everyone there was so welcoming and kind!! This is my first time ever at this powwow I do hope to go back every year. It was HOTTTT! but well worth the heat to dance :-)., part of grand entry :-),Sac and Fox Nation Princesses,-intertribal dancing,more intertribal :-), then here is a youtube video link that I found of me in Grand Entry Fri night-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVgK5Fg8Whc then Sat night-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Rr9a...eature=related.

    5. Robert Woolery Sr. Memorial Powwow- Sedalia,MO -July 15th-17th, I was very happy to take a friend of mine along this was her first time ever dancing in the inter-tribals and she hopes to go back, her name is Breanna :-) I really enjoyed this event- it was really nice we both enjoyed ourselves I wish I could have been there longer! Grand Entry :-), inter-tribal with Breanna :-),-rounddancin',-intertribal-back shot :-),-Ladies Cloth and Buckskin(Ladies Traditional).

    6.Akicita Wacipi Veterans Powwow- Louisville,KY, Nov 12th-13th but I was only there on Saturday :-), had fun- this was a nice event! I enjoyed myself would have like to have been there both days but had to get back for class. Here is some pictures my friend Brooke took- Wished we could have caught me dancing but at least I got some :-) Bitter-sweet as this was my last Powwow of 2011 :-)





    Then here are a few snapshots I took before we had cultural day in my Early Childhood Class, I explained the differences of some of our regalia to the best of my knowledge and also led the class in a round-dance everyone had so much fun! I wish they could have had pictures taken- I'm sure someone has them and if I can find them I will upload them here!

    Hope you enjoyed have a wonderful day/night and a very HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON

    Nice work Sarah! You did good!

        Thank you so much! It has been a journey for sure and I've loved every step of it- I have grown a lot since I was selected as well- wish I could have made it to a few more events to represent everyone on here a little more, but I'm very proud of the ones I got to go to :-) Thank you again!

              Thank you so much for the nice compliments :-) It has been awesome and my outfits have been a piece at a time thing I hope to continue to add a little here and there I look back at what I started with(Powwows in general), then what I had when I ran for Powwows.com Princess, and then now and can tell I have really grown in that area as well :-)
              Thank you all so much again! I will never be able to say thank you enough :-)

                Way to represent! Those colors complimented you nicely, made your regalia that much nicer. When I quit my day job next year, I'm gonna hit up a powwow with you over your way. Thanks for your dedication Sarah!

                      Powwows will continue to evolve in many directions. It is inevitable.

                                This year, my family decided to make a list of a powwows we had never attended and Red Earth made the cut. THUNDER had nothing to do with it of course...ahem!

                                Greetings to all that will take the time to read my story. This story may touch you or make you upset, but I wanted to share a little about me and my life.
                                My story starts when I was a very young girl. I went up to my mother and asked her one day why she is brown and I am not. She explained...

                                Those of you that have been around here for awhile know that every year I post on the anniversary of my sobriety. It is on the 24th of November. This year is my 22nd year being clean and sober.

                                The reason I post this is to honor that fact. While it is not the first and foremost thing...

                                Boozhoo niji,

                                OK so I was at this little gathering here in Florida called Chasco festival. It is mostly a fair, witt midway rides and whatnot, but back in a little corner is where the NDNs would sing and dance, along with a handful of vendors. This gathering was kinda special for me...

                                As powwow season winds down we can begin to reflect on our year of powwowing.

                                Last week, I went to a powwow in California. Part of this trip was by air and the other part was on the powwow highway. My driving shift was in the middle of the night, both coming and going between the hours...
