Waterhen Lake Cree First Nation hopes for another successful powwow
The community of Waterhen Lake Cree First Nation is set to welcome guests who will dance, drum, teach and spectate at the fourth annual traditional powwow this weekend.
Joanne Roy, the portfolio councillor spearheading the organizing committee, said before each grand entry community elders pray for the wellbeing of any visitors and the host reserve.
“They pray for the greater spirit to guide us and fill our people with the cultural component and to appreciate who we are as Cree people,” she said.
There will be five grand entries throughout the Aug. 12 to 14 powwow.
