woodland indian program at andersontown powwow
Camp set up at the Andersontown Powwow. For all large events, we use a rope border to separate the crowd from the more delicate educational items, the fire pit, and to create a stage area to demonstrate in. We put all children's hands-on items outside the perimeter including games, toys, pump-drill, mortar and pestle, some cooking items, and furs.
