The Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina kicks of its 11th annual Dance of the Spring Moon on Friday evening with the help of a big sponsor. The tribe signed an agreement with the Walmart in Pembroke to promote the event. The store is selling t-shirts to benefit the powwow and a large display at the front entrance advertises the powwow. "This is what a great partnership can do,” Chairman Harvey Godwin said on the tribe's website. “Not only was Walmart our number one sponsor for the powwow, they also got these t-shirts produced at a discounted rate for us. This is what a real community partner looks like. This is for the benefit of the people.” The powwow runs through Sunday at the tribe's cultural center in Maxton. Get the Story:
