The Wahnee Descendants have taken quite a loss over the past couple of weeks. There have been several passings of family members so we have decided to cancel this year's Annual Pow-Wow out of respect for our family members.

Any obligations that we have scheduled for the next couple of months will be cancelled as well. The Wahnee Descendants have been asked to Co-Host several Pow-Wow's as well as Head Staff positions so we will contact those families and organizations and let them know what our situation is and that we must regretfully remove ourselves from those positions as well as decline upcoming engagements until a proper time of mourning has passed.

We wish sincere condolences to all our family members who have lost loved ones over the past couple of weeks. Our prayers are with you during this difficult time. Ura!

True to form, the 2008 Wahnee Descendants Annual Pow-Wow kicked off on Saturday with some of the best Gourd Dance singing I have heard in many years. Many thanks to Anthony Monoessy and everyone that sat at the big drum both days to produce such beautiful music. Along with great singing, there was no shortage of men and women Gourd Dancers to fill the arena. The head staff did a wonderful job all weekend and the Wahnee Descendants Committee would like to personally thank those dignitaries for all their hard work. I was so busy Gourd Dancing and running around that I forgot to take some pictures of the Pow-Wow so when I can find someone with a nice set of pictures, I will post them here for all to see.

The Committee would like to personally thank the outgoing Descendants Princess Reyann Norberto for honorably serving as our Pow-Wow Princess. She has carried herself in a dignified manner throughout her reign and has set a wonderful example for our newly installed Descendants Princess, Larissa Whitewolf. On behalf of the Wahnee Descendants, we would like to sincerely thank the family of Larissa for their support and we look forward to a wonderful year with her serving as our Family's Pow-Wow Princess. There are so many friends and relatives to thank for all their hard work at this Pow-Wow and throughout the year but it just isn't possible to list all the names here, but you know who you are and so the Committee wishes to extend many ura's to you. It won't be long until we start back up with our first benefit for next year's event so check back often to find out where and when the next Wahnee Descendants Pow-Wow will be and of course please check the "Forums" to see where we will be Co-hosting.

The time has come for the Wahnee Descendants to claim their place on the internet. For the longest time our proud family has gone without an online presence and so this website is an attempt to bring all family and friends together to a central location so we may share information in an easy and timely manner. This website will evolve as time goes on into a center of shared ideals between the Wahnee Descendants (Wahnee, Conneywerdy, and Kopaddy Families) as well as other Pow-Wow Organizations we choose to sponsor or support. For sections that aren't hard coded into the main website; there will definitely be a section inside the Forums that will announce important events such as Pow-Wow Dates, Marriages, Births, Graduations, Promotions, Reunions, and anything else under the sun.

Please make sure to check out all the links to the left to see all that we have to offer. If you see something that needs to be amended please contact the "Webmaster" with your request. Please keep in mind, not all suggestions can be implemented as there must be some measure of control over the content that is posted on this site, but everything will be taken into consideration. Please check back often as there will be more and more content added all the time. Uraako!
