Pow-Wow 2003

If you weren't there, you missed a great Pow-Wow ! Congratulations to the Pre-Ordeal Team for taking 1 ^st place again this year in the Pre-Ordeal Ceremony . Crow also took 2nd place in Ultimate Frisbee and 2 ^nd place in Tug-o-War. The volleyball team also did great, loosing a close game in the 2nd round. In the adult category, Dan T. received 1 ^st place in Archery and 2 ^nd place in Horseshoes. Way to go Mr. T.! The Chapter would also like to thank everyone who participated in the individual events. This participation goes far in determining the overall awards.

We would also like to congratulate our two new Vigil Honor members. Pat W., our illustrious Chief and Carol D., our Adviser to the Treasurer both received their Vigil Honor at Pow-Wow .

Thanks also goes out to everyone who helped with the extra service project we were given, of taking down tents in 3 campsites.
