About Us
We are a small committee of volunteers
operating under the direction of Frank's wife, Anne Bush. The Committee
organizes the Walk in the Spirit Pow Wow for the
People.
Our priority has been to make sure our pow wow is organized in a
good way. We consult spiritual leaders, elders, and respected members of
the Anishnabe community. The Committee asks these
individuals to come and share teachings. These respected community
members, the dancers, the drummers, the singers, the Ogitchida, and all the
People who come to listen are what makes the Frank Bush Memorial Walk in the
Spirit Pow Wow a "teaching" pow wow. The People who come make
this a good gathering.
The Committee members contribute time and personal money
to make this gathering possible. Trader fees, fundraisers, donations, and
raffles help offset some of our out of pocket expenses. We are not
generating profits, our budget is designed to break even, and occasionally we
end up in the hole.
We put our hearts into organizing the
Walk in the Spirit Pow Wow because we want to bring our People together in a
good way, in a traditional way, and in a good place.
