Episode 13 - Our First Team Creek Tribe Powwow
Thursday Oct 01, 2020
Thursday Oct 01, 2020
In this episode, most of the adult class stuck around for our first Powwow or open discussion. The idea was sparked earlier in the day to see if the group would be interested in recording a discussion about various topics.
In this first edition of our Powwow, I decided not to have a specific topic we would discuss but to just to start talking and see where it leads us.
I think this structure was a good episode but future Powwows will be more focused on specific topics. Our adult team is a pretty tight community and it was cool to "chew the fat" with them in this episode.
