SUMMARY:Onslow Veteran’s Pow Wow
DESCRIPTION:The Onslow Veterans Pow-Wow is a unique national event; it’s the only pow-wow in the country that invites the public\, honors veterans and includes multiple tribes. A pow-wow is a social gathering where Native Americans meet\, sing\, dance\, socialize\, and honor their culture.  It is also a stand-out event that brings together tribes from across the United States to dance\, compete\, and share the story and power of Native cultures. Many pow-wows are closed to the public or bring together members of one tribe. \nThis two-day event is open to the public and will attract tribal dancers and participants from as far away as Arizona. Come celebrate this unique\, important cultural gathering in Jacksonville\, NC. Guests will enjoy food from Native vendors\, and Native dance\, music\, and drumming events. If you are new to pow-wows\, try to attend the Grand Entry events—the intertribal pageantry and moving ceremony will leave you breathless and stir new respect for Native culture. Don’t forget to take a tipi tour for a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
