Native Americans soar like an eagle at pow wow

By Bryan Schwartzman

Some 100 people representing Native American tribes from across the country came to Flushing Meadows Corona Park last weekend for a two-day Circle of Nations Pow Wow at Flushing Lake.

This was the second annual pow wow organized by the Cherokee Blackfeet Cultural Circle, a Long Island-based organization dedicated to teaching and advocating Native American causes.

A few visitors came to view the dancing to traditional drumbeats, and to shop at the various crafts stands that were set up.
