CONTEST RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR DANCE COMPETITION

All contestants must be in each grand entry.

All contests are gender specific.

All dancers must be in full regalia and in their proper category at the time of Grand Entry.
Dancers will receive fifteen (15) points for participation in Grand Entry. At the discretion of the Arena Director, dancers will lose points if they are not in their proper category at the time of Grand Entry. Any dancer leaving the arena during Grand Entry (flag song, prayer, veteran's song and or victory song), will forfeit their Grand entry points.

All dancers' numbers cards MUST BE worn on the LEFT SIDE and VISIBLE to the Head Judge and her/his number takers.

Absolutely NO BALL CAPS will be allowed with regalia during Grand Entry. Anyone caught wearing a ball cap will forfeit their Grand Entry points.

ALL TABULATIONS ARE FINAL!

Any questions / problems that should arise regarding the dance contests that cannot be solved through the Head Judge will be directed to the Powwow Committee Chairman. ALL DECISIONS MADE BY THE POWWOW COMMITTEE ARE FINAL!

Dance competitions will no longer be held to a set schedule. Due to inclement weather possibilities, it is difficult to adhere to a set schedule. Dance competitions and exhibition dancing in all categories will be called in random order for each session. The MC will make these announcements prior to the competitions and exhibitions, so be alert throughout the day to listen for these announcements.

A new dance category will be added this year. The GOLDEN AGE category is open to those who are of 60 years and over. A $50.00 honorarium will be given for each participant in addition to a first, second and third place ribbon. Those who register for the Golden Age dance category WILL NOT be eligible to enter in any other dance category.
This category will be a TRADITIONAL DANCE ONLY.
