They will eat native food like Apache posole (hominy and meat), learn craftmaking and native dances, listen to ancestral tales told by native storytellers and take a medicinal-herb walk. The family of Doc Tate Nevaquaya, the famed Comanche flutist, will show them how to make the wood instrument on which he played the unwritten, melodic music of his ancestors. At the Sac and Fox Powwow, members of Vetter's group will talk with representatives of tribes from all over North America.
