Unfortunately, there has been an upsurge of positive Covid cases throughout the country. In order to keep our community, visitors, and powwow family safe from exposure, the Lincoln’s Powwow Committee has made a decision to cancel the 2022 powwow in Simnasho OR.
We hope to help slow the upsurge of cases and hope we will be able move forward in 2023.”
