"Powwow was an Algonquin term, "pau-wau" or "pauau", which referred to a gathering of medicine men and spiritual leaders. "Pau-wauing" referred to a religious ceremony, usually one of curing. In the 1800's the European explorers observing these religious gatherings and dances mispronounced the word as powwow. Jennings, The Invasion of America, p. 241. In 1646 the Massachusetts General Court decreed that “no Indian shall at any time pawwaw, or perform outward worship to their false gods, or to the devil....” ~From William Marder

Native American Unity &
Friendship Gathering
Theta Community near Columbia, TN, on the West family
farm. 2927 Dave Roberts Road, Columbia, TN 38401.
Driving
directions: from I-65, take the Saturn Parkway Exit
towards Columbia/Spring Hill; at the Kedron Road Exit,
turn right onto Kedron Road, go thru the first stop
sign, then turn right at the Spring Hill town hall. When
you get to the stop sign at the intersection of
Beechcroft Road (the post office will be on your right),
turn left onto Beechcroft. At Carter's Creek Pike, turn
right, after about 3/4 mile turn left onto Hwy. 247;
proceed thru the Theta community; just past the third
church (a Methodist church), turn left onto Knob Creek
Road. 2 miles down Knob Creek Road you will see a pair
horse barns on the leftwith a chert road between them -
this is Dave Roberts Road. Turn left here, and the first
house on the right belongs to the West Family. This is
the site of the gathering. If you get lost, call
931-380-1982 for
directions. Everyone is encouraged to bring a covered dish to share. You will probably want to bring lawn chairs and/or blankets. And come with a good attitude.Those coming from East Tennessee may want to contact Jack Soco Cody at 865-717-3796 to see about the likelihood of a carpool or caravan. It's easier to follow someone who has been to the site than to try to read directions & try to drive at the same time.

Fredericksburg Intertribal Powwow
Ft. Martin Scott, 1606 E. Main St., Fredericksburg, TX
78624
In 1999 the Comanche family of Chappabitty and Quassycheeky,
along with the Fredericksburg Intertribal Powwow organization
co-sponsored and founded the first annual powwow to honor an
unbroken treaty between the Comanche Nation and the German
settlers of Fredericksburg. It was because of the warm
relationship between the Comache and the Germans that family
ancestors as well as the treaty survived. Our powwow is
organized and run in the traditional family style and held
outside at historic Ft. Martin Scott.
