LODGE 104 DRUM SESSION SCHEDULE
2018

Fellow Arrowmen,
Now is the time to join Drum Team. We need interested youth dedicated to learning the traditions and songs of our southern drum in order to compete at Conclave next April. This group may even continue to work together to prepare for competing at NOAC in 2018.
Please check your email or the Lodge website before heading out to any drum session. You will also notice that there are two sessions scheduled for most months. Getting together to sing only once per month is simply not enough for anyone to make real progress as a singer. Two sessions per month will also help everyone be better prepared for Lodge Pow Wow in March and especially for the singing competition at the Section 7B Conclave in April.
Scout Uniforms are not required for drum practice sessions. However, long pants are required to sit at the drum. Also, no open-toe shoes (sandals, flip-flops) and no tank-top t-shirts. This is one of several ways that we show our respect for the drum and all that it represents. Dancers (and those who would like to be) are always welcome at any drum practice. A dancer who is familiar with Native American powwow songs will be a better dancer. Also, non-OA members (Scouts, Webelos, Cubs, etc.) are welcome to attend our practice sessions.

20-22 April SR 7 B Conclave at Camp Cherokee in Yanceyville NC. SR 7B for Conclave. Frequently asked questions about Conclave
