This dancer was one of over 500 who entered in the afternoon Grand Entry at the Grand Portage Rendezvous Days Powwow on Saturday, August 10. There were even more dancers in the evening Grand Entry. The Grand Portage host drum Stonebridge Singers sang for a full 18 minutes as 800 dancers entered the powwow circle. The day included many special honor songs and healing songs and in the evening an exciting round dance. There were also many events through the weekend at the voyageur encampment at the Grand Portage National Monument. See more about the 2013 Rendezvous Days celebration in Grand Portage on page B7.
