The Deshkan Ziibiing (Chippewas of the Thames) 45th Annual Competition Powwow was held August 20th & 21st at 640 Jubilee Rd., Muncey. This year the Deshkan Ziibiings Niizh Manidoog relatives (Two Spirit, LBGTQIA+) were honoured with the hope of bringing back the respect they have always deserved. Because of the risk of rain and thunderstorms, Sunday’s location was moved to Antler River Elementary School and the vendors were moved to the Chippewa Community Center on Chippewa Rd., Muncey.
