Powwow Reunites Friends and Alumni in Shared Circle
The Lawrence powwow drew students, alumni, and nonlocals, celebrating Native American culture with singing, dancing, and food. White Bull on Friday was named Miss Haskell 2007, aiming to improve student life next year. Dee Toppah, a Vietnam veteran with two Purple Hearts, traveled from Oklahoma to reconnect and meet old friends, noting the circle motif in dances, drum, and gathering as life.
