POWWOW

Last night we went to a Powwow at the University of Utah.  The Union was FULL of Native Americans, many in their beautiful and amazing regalia.

Towards the end of the night, Chris saw a little boy sitting on the stairs by himself that looked distressed, so he asked him if he was lost.  At first the boy was scared by Chris, but when he realized he was trying to help, the boy wanted to talk to him.  Chris asked the boy where he last saw his parents.  He said, "They have brown eyes and brown hair."

Realize we were in an area with easily 200 Native Americans, ALL with brown eyes and brown hair.  :)

Chris took the boy up to the main announcer and they found his mom.  I got warm fuzzies seeing his moms look of worry gone from her face as she hugged her son.  Good job Chris.
