Pow Wow

Every summer, at Riverside Park, which is right down the street from our house, the "Three Fires" Pow Wow takes place. The term "Three Fires" refers to the three nations in the Great Lakes region -- the Ottawa, the Ojibwe (or Chippewa) and the Potawatomi. These nations have a centuries-old alliance for purposes of trade, political relations and defense. And they come together every year to celebrate their history and their heritage. We thought we'd take the kids to learn about another culture. As you can see, we had a great time.
