ALL INDIANS MUST DANCE
Osiyo, and welcome to the Strong Sun Pow Wow web site.  This is an Inter tribal treaching PowWow.  In 2010, the Strong Sun Pow Wow moved to a a new, expanded site.  With advisement from the Tribal Council, an agreement was reached with Tanglewood Park. The Strong Sun Pow Wow will again be in Clemmons, NC.  There are were two Native American villages and a un-named fort on the park grounds, which belonged to our ancestors.  This location is well suited to the Strong Sun Pow Wow and will allow the Pow Wow to grow in continued celebration of Native American culture and in promoting an understanding of Native American people. This will be our 8th annual Pow Wow at home.

Approximately 1000 people normally pass through Tanglewoods Park's gate on a given day during peak seaon.  The Strong  Sun Pow Wow will be following the Tanglewood 4th of July Celebration, a major event for the park. In 2009, more than 3500 people attended the Strong Sun Pow Wow.  With more people being aware of this event, attendance will likely far exceed past years.

The Pow Wow grounds are within 30 yards of the Yadkin River.  Fairly near the Park are fish traps in the Yadkin River that were built by our people several hundreds of years ago. If nets were placed in them today, they would work as well as they did in 1500 and before. 



There are many special event's planned for the 2012 Strong Sun Pow Wow. 
Featured will be a concert of renowned Cherokee Native American flutists, John Sarantos with Mr. Arvel Bird Live in the Circle, Birds of Prey, Flint Nappimg, Fire Starting, Traditional Drums, dancers in traditional regalia and ceremonies honoring veterans, as well as many other memorable events.  Native American crafts people from across the country will display their crafts and food vendors will offer traditional Pow Wow menu items. Also Appering  Fed Yellowknife,
 Roy Spotted Eagle
