CBE Traditional Pow Wow

Jun. 19, 2018


On May 17, 2018 at Crescent Heights High School, Elders, community members, special guests, students, teachers, drummers and dancers gathered in celebration of reconciliation through education at the 4th Traditional Pow Wow. The Calgary Board of Education was pleased to welcome over 1300 attendees to this annual event. This year’s Traditional Pow Wow was generously sponsored by Suncor Energy Foundation, with support from YMCA and USAY. The increased number of young dancers is a beautiful example of how Indigenous communities are growing and are deeply rooted in the many cultures that encircle the larger Calgary community.
