Organizers of the Silver Lake Pow Wow are gearing up for another end of summer gathering of friends and neighbours at Silver lake Provincial Park.
The Drum this year, the Soaring Eagle Singers, are a group that has been at the Pow Wow in the past, but has some new members, most of whom are local.
The Head male dancer will be Tyson Commanda and the Head female is Kaylee Brooks Both of whom come from the Golden Lake area.
The Pow Wow emcee is Danka Brewer, the Elder Larry McDermott and the Fire Keeper is Alex Brewer.
Many of the regular vendors are expected back and some new ones will be attending as well, but as Trudy Knapp, the long time Pow Wow organizer said, most of the vendors don’t contact them in advance, preferring to just show up on the day.
The Big Smoke Food Truck from Harrowsmith will be providing food this year, and the local committee is providing native tacos and fried bread.
The Pow Wow starts at 12:00 each day and runs until 6:00 pm or so. Admission is $4 per person (the under 16 and over 60 set get in for free) and there is a parking fee of $15.00 at the Provincial Park. For every parking fee paid, the Pow Wow offers one free admission however.
