Powwow
We need people who are willing to work with our community in sponsoring our special gathering.
  • We need donations in the form of money, food (for Saturday's dinner), copying/printing (flyers, program booklet, posters, t-shirts, caps), door prizes, lodging at local motels/hotels, contest sponsorship, head staff honoraria, sound system, and marketing/publicity of event.
  • We need people who are willing to knock on a few doors or make phone calls, and help obtain any or all of the above. _OR_ if you know of any funding possibilities, please, we need your help.
  • As the event date nears, we need people to post flyers/posters around the city.
  • During the powwow itself, we need lots of people power! Throughout the event, we need volunteers to help keep our visiting singers supplied with water, help keep the area litter-free, empty trash cans, run errands to the store when supplies become limited, etc. etc.

If you are willing to do one or more of these duties, wonderful! As you help throughout the day, you will find that there will be time to enjoy the powwow itself.

NCIPA has established an excellent reputation for being gracious hosts. Help us to continue a special tradition. We appreciate any help you can provide. In the past we've had volunteers from the Boy Scouts, CSU and local High School classes, as well as from many wonderful individuals.

Thanks to ALL the Volunteers who help us throughout the year, and especially the weekend of our powwow. You are all incredible! Please plan on attending our next powwow.
