 > Pow Wow drum  and drummers / singers. The Pow Wow leader narrates the activity between dances and calls the dancers into the circle for the next dance. The leader provides important information for non-Natives on what is proper conduct during the Pow Wow.
 > A dance to honor warriors is performed at most Pow Wows. Non-Native American military veterans were invited to participate in the dance. I was the only non-Native veteran to dance and it was an honor for me to do so. Each dancer came up to me after dancing and thanked me for my military service. It was a deeply moving experience.
