This new plaque was to be commemorated later in the day.
Today's American Indian Powwow commemorated Chief Pontiac calling a council of Indian Tribes on April 27, 1763, 250 years ago. Our camera class met, unofficially, to get some photos of this colorful event. We had an absolutely beautiful day. It was an interesting experience and I tried to picture the Indians there at Council Park before there were roads, houses and telephone poles, all riding in on their horses, setting up there tepees and listening to the words of a leader who was not their own but issuing wise words urging them to protect their lands. Well, I guess I had to use my imagination.
