Description
This is a group of women who enjoy pre-1840 Buckskinner Rendezvous re-enactments. Membership in the actual group is invitation only, but this list is open to the public for folks to get to know us better.
We who have chosen to join Hanta Yowin understand that the life of the pre-1840 women revolved around survival. Alone, she could feed herself, clothe herself, and shelter herself from the natural elements. Although honing our skills in primitive survival is a primary function of Hanta Yowin, there are many other aspects of the pre-1840 woman's life that we want to teach and learn. These include her ability in artistic crafts such as beadwork, quillwork, weaving, ETC. The Hanta Yowin Society is a group of women committed to learning these skills. It is a sisterhood that gives a sense of awareness, growth, and independence. The society is for sharing laughter and tears, and giving support to others; stressing trust, patience, and honor.
