"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. This event is billed in "Indian Country" as the largest Pow Wow east of the Mississippi. 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 Hermitage Landing Lakeside Resort 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.

So come on! Join with us in celebrating the largest Pow Wow east of the Mississippi!
