 > Pow Wow in Baltimore, MD photo
 > 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.
 > Dancing within the circle. The Pow Wow is a family activity. Visitors are invited into the dance circle at approriate times during the Pow Wow. Obviously a very colorful event, photos can not convey the singing and drumming excitment of the Pow Wow. You have to experience one!!
