AHO, BRAVES OF THE MIGHTY CREEK!The Canaveral Nation’s camp-out (Pinewood Derby) on Friday, Saturday and Sunday was great according to King Snake (Charlie) and Silver Cougar (Bill) the only two (2) Creek in full attendance. In my opinion, correct me if I speak with fork tongue my fellow participants but the Creek needs to step it up in attendance at these Nation affairs. We (Charlie, Paul B, Bill and I) were asked frequently by several tribes; “Where’s the Creek!” Enough said about that! To start, camp set-up was a little tough for the crew (Bill and Charlie) as there were many events taking place at KARS this weekend so the Creek had to camp wherever a space was available. The arrival of the rest of the tribe started Saturday with Gray Wolf and Wolf Fang bringing coffee and doughnuts. As the morning move closer to race time the Lizards appeared with Orange Monkey , then the Dragons along with the Tigers followed shortly by the Wolves and John and Devin. Saturday at 11:45 AM brought the qualifying of the young brave’s cars with Ryan, Trip and Alec finishing and receiving ribbons for First, Second, and Third best times for the tribe. The young Creek braves will receive participation ribbons for racing. The Nation's Chief's Choice went to the guitar car beating out Paul (Wolf Fang) and Alec (Black Wolf) with their best interpretation of the Indian theme. Sunday a request was made by the Nation’s Chief to provide a head count this week from all tribal members who plan on attending t he state Pow-Wow. Also, Chief emphasized the cost will be a $15.00 ‘at the door cost’ per family. I believe they want cash only. Patches and tee-shirts will be available for order upon arrival at the Pow-Wow site. So far Charlie and I have committed to attend. Therefore, send me confirmation either by phone or e-mail. Let’s try and show the Nation that the Creek are not lost in the urban wilderness and will be strong in presence.
Take It Easy,Broph
