UPPER SIOUX COMMUNITY — The hollowing sounds of rhythmic drum beats and singing voices echoed off the trees at the Upper Sioux Community's Wacipi grounds as three days of traditional powwow gatherings kicked off southeast of Granite Falls Friday evening.

The event, which brings Native Americans together to sing, dance and celebrate life with their community, began with a Grand Entry, followed by a men's traditional special where Tim Blue was honored.

The powwow continued Saturday, where Rhonda Hoeper was honored in remembrance during the women's traditional special. Festivities continued through the afternoon Saturday and into mid-day Sunday.
