In place of the annual in-person Learning to Walk Together Powwow, Northern Michigan
University’s Native American Student Association presents Powwow 101: Learning to Walk
Together (While Apart) on April 3rd, 1 - 3pm Eastern over Zoom and live streamed on our
Facebook page @nmunasa.
This virtual, educational event will include speakers on different topics surrounding
contemporary powwows. Framed much like a powwow’s grand entry, you will first hear the
sounds of the Morning Thunder drum for an opening song, followed by talks on a range of topics
from the importance of Veterans in Native American culture, regalia and beadwork, to providing
tips on proper etiquette when attending a powwow. Virtual drum and dance demonstrations of
different styles will also take place during the event. Zoom participants will have the opportunity
to participate in a closing ceremony, by listening to the closing song and dancing along! If you
have regalia, feel free to attend wearing regalia in preparation for this closing ceremony. We can
all learn to walk together this way, while apart!
This is a free event. Zoom registration required. To register and for more information:

Our 3rd graders had a great experience in McFadden's Writing Boot Camp! We learned how to write complete sentences, to write complete paragraphs, and to use parts of speech properly. Here they are in their T shirts that we made to show we survived Boot Camp!
Mrs. Browning brought a book cart around filled with brand new books for all of our 3rd graders to select and add to their personal libraries. They were so excited! March is Reading Month Bingo winners got to select their books first.
