Central Wyoming College will host its first Teton Pow Wow on Saturday, hoping to initiate a regular cultural exchange between Jackson Hole and the tribes on the Wind River Reservation.
Tom Hallberg covers a little bit of everything, from skiing to long-form feature stories. A Teton Valley, Idaho, transplant by way of Portland and Bend, Oregon, he spends his time outside work writing fiction, splitboarding and climbing.
Central Wyoming College will host its first Teton Pow Wow on Saturday, hoping to initiate a regular cultural exchange between Jackson Hole and the tribes on the Wind River Reservation.
Wyoming isn’t always known as a bastion of cultural intersection, but for Saturday afternoon the Teton County Fairgrounds will facilitate an exchange centuries in the making.
For six hours the fairgrounds will transform from a cowboy landmark to an extension of Indian Country for the first-ever Teton Pow Wow. Hosted by Central Wyoming College’s United Tribes Club, the gathering is similar to events the club has held at the college’s main campus in Riverton.
