VOLUNTEER WEEKEND AT THE FRISCO NATIVE AMERICAN MUSEUM<br />

by: Joyce Bornfriend<br />

If you’ve ever wondered how a fishing weir<br />

works or what a “3 Sisters Garden” looks like<br />

or how a reed flute is made, join the Volunteer<br />

Weekend at the Frisco Native American<br />

Museum on November 3 & 4, <strong>2018</strong>. Sessions<br />

will begin each day at 9:00 am and continue<br />

through the afternoon with a variety of activities.<br />

“The volunteer weekend is special for museum<br />

staff because it gives us a chance to spend time<br />

with the wonderful people who help keep the<br />

museum growing. Of course, we always have<br />

lots to do,” said Carl Bornfriend, Executive<br />

Director for the museum. “From pruning vines<br />

on the nature trail, clearing debris, or painting<br />

an outdoor exhibit, there will be something for<br />

everyone’s interest and skill level.”<br />

Most of the work will be preparation for the<br />

spring Discovery Days concert planned for<br />

April 27 & 28, 2019. Native Journey: Music &<br />

Dance will offer a two-day interactive adventure<br />

into the beauty of Native American music.<br />

Participants will not only have an opportunity to<br />

learn how drums are made but will also have a<br />

chance to beat the drum and feel the power of<br />

the music when they join friendship dances held<br />

throughout the day. Some sessions will feature<br />

Native American artists demonstrating intricate<br />

dance steps while others will “rattle” visitors<br />

with instruments that illustrate how music can<br />

be coaxed from the natural world. It will be a<br />

weekend of fun and adventure for the entire<br />

family.<br />

The museum, which is located on<br />

Hatteras Island, is open Tuesday<br />

through Sunday. For more information,<br />
