"Indians Working for Indians"

The annual NAIA Pow Wow and Fall Festival, which always begins on the Third Saturday in October, attracts people from all over the state of Tennessee.. Each October the Indians from around the Nation gather to share part of their culture. Not just for the reunion of family and friends, but for tourists who are welcomed to witness the spectacle; to join in the celebration of culture still nurtured by the some 10,000 Indians who call Tennessee home today.

You'll want to treat yourself to the delights of authentic Indian food, such as fry bread, Indian Tacos and hominy the "Indian way." Don't worry about traffic this year because Long Hunter State Park has allowed us to use their facilities. Also, don't worry about where you're going to sit. We have taken care of that too. But if you want to bring your lawn chair that will be fine.

The Native Peoples Magazine (July 2004) picked us as one of the Top 16 Pow-Wows in the Country! So c'mon! Join with us and all our friends from across Indian country in celebrating our Pow Wow .
