I am pleased to announce that on October 14, and 15, 1995 Student
Academic Services, the Department of Ethnic Studies, and the American
Indian Council of the Third World Counselors Association are
sponsoring the First Annual Hill Top Pow-Wow American Indian
Celebration at California State University, Hayward. The purpose of
the Hill Top Pow-Wow event is to celebrate Native Indigenous Peoples
of America and the Autumnal Equinox. This will be the First American
Indian Hill Top Pow-Wow since 1976 at California State University,
Hayward.

The Hill Top Pow-Wow is a free event and a wonderful opportunity for
CSUH students, staff, administrators, their families and local
communities to enjoy and participate in a uniquely traditional
American Indian experience. Participants will be able to feel the
sounds of the drums, which Native Americans consider the Heartbeat
of the people, see proud dancers display their heritage through
traditional dances and regalia, and enjoy the unequaled crafts and
jewelry displayed by American Indian vendors.

THURSDAY, October 12, 1995 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm (Pre-Pow-Wow
Presentation)

We have planned a pre Pow-Wow presentation on the Agora Stage Area
to introduce the campus community to the main Hill Top Pow-Wow
Saturday, October 14, and Sunday, October 15, 1995. The program will
begin with a traditional American Indian blessing of the Hill Top
Pow-Wow event, followed by a drum demonstration, and poetry reading.

The HILL TOP POW-WOW main program will start on:

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1995 from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm, and
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1995 from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm at the
University Stadium.
