For the past 6 years the Pahrump Powwow has grown to be the largest cultural event in this community. Over 5000 people attend this 3-day event annually and the Pahrump Powwow has grown from a social, entertaining powwow to a recognized Dance and Drum contest powwow within the Native American tribal nations. Our mission statement is, “We create a cultural and educational experience for all peoples through indigenous music, dance, crafts and storytelling.”

With the addition of the two contests, Native American dancers from many tribes in the southwest come to participate for prize money and to showcase their skills and handmade regalia. There are several different categories in Native American dance and drum contests… those being either a northern style or southern style. Each style is distinct, educational and an amazing cultural experience.

The Powwow includes juried vendors with exceptional handmade Native American crafts. These crafts include everything from museum quality pottery and paintings, to incredibly beautiful handmade Navajo jewelry. We are very proud of the vendors that participate in the Pahrump Powwow.

With the above being our mission we are writing to you in hopes that you will consider being a sponsor for the 2009 11th Annual Pahrump Powwow.

As a sponsor of the Pahrump Powwow, we proudly display your name on our Sponsor Banner, and in our newspaper and radio advertising. You will be listed in our program as well as having your name announced by our MC several times each day.

We are a recognized 501 (c) 3 Non Profit Organization, so your contribution would be a charitable donation. We will be glad to provide sponsors with our EIN number from the IRS.

I would like to thank you in advance for your consideration. For any questions you may have please don’t hesitate to give me a call me at 775-209-3444.

Sincerely,
Paula Elefante
Director, Pahrump Powwow
