Wild West.....

 The theme was The Wild West for our Illinois Indian State Rally held this past weekend.  This theme will also serve for our Grand National Rally in Forest City, this coming July.  I helped with painting and designing the teepee for the event.  Above are some photo's of the process and the finished product.  The last picture is some of our members who dressed in costume for the Rally.

If I were a witch upon a big switch,
     A-riding thought the air.
I'd fly around, then drop to the ground,
    And give you an awful scare.

You'll surely be happy on Halloween!
