2019 American Legions Veterans Pow Wow
Join us for the American Legions Veterans Pow Wow on June 14-16, 2019 at American Legion Post 290 in King, North Carolina. Celebrate Native American culture as you enjoy Native dancing and drumming, crafts, food, art, flute music and story telling. Help American Legion Post 290 in its support of veterans and their families.
The American Legions Veterans Pow Wow is conducted to help raise money to get homeless veterans off the streets, into housing, and to find employment for them. All profits from this pow-wow are used for that purpose. There is no gate fee, admission is free. Donations are always welcome. On Saturday a veteran’s motorcycle ride will take place.
Rolling Thunder, a former military motorcycle club will take part in this. Resource groups for veterans will be present to serve, answer questions, and assist veterans. The two available food booths serve truly tasty food. American Indian vendors will have craft booths set up for you to visit, and they will answer questions concerning their culture. Free camping is permitted in areas close to the vendors.
