Indian Village rises ahead of Round-Up
By BEN LONERGAN
East Oregonian
PENDLETON — As
dawn broke Sunday, Sept. 12,
over the Pendleton Round-Up
Grounds, dozens of tribal
members from across the
Pacifi c Northwest descended
on the Indian Village to begin
assembling teepees.
For many, including
65-year-old Odie Minthorn,
the Round-Up Indian Village
has been a tradition that has
stretched on for generations.
“My grandmother was
here in 1910,” said Minthorn.
“I’ve been doing this forever.”
Minthorn is an enrolled
member of the Cayuse and
Umatilla tribes and said
his family has been partic-
ipating in the village since
the founding days of the
Round-Up. As Minthorn
helped tie off the top of the
four pole frame that supports
his teepee, he remarked at the
mix of memories that come
with returning to the Indian
Village each year.
“I’m sad and I’m glad —
my grandmother was right
here,” he said as he gestured
to a nearby spot of grass
where his family once raised
her teepee.
Minthorn said he is
happy to return and enjoys
the memories that come
with raising teepees with his
family members, but always
feels a twinge of sadness as
he remembers those who are
no longer with him. Even so,
Minthorn said he feels it’s
important to keep the knowl-
edge and practice of assem-
bling a teepee alive.
For 69-year-old Fran-
cine Delorme, an enrolled
member of the Nez Perce
tribe from Lapwai, Idaho, the
importance of passing on her
knowledge and reconnect-
ing family is what brings her
back to the Round-Up each
year.
Delorme and her children
and grandchildren raised fi ve
teepees Sunday morning,
carefully taking the time to
select their teepee poles and
lash the tops.
“We used to bring our
own teepee poles each year,”
she said. “But it’s a lot of
work to make them.”
Delorme said she and her
late husband made 45 teepee
poles several years ago and
ended up leaving them at the
Round-Up with the intent of
making more. She said her
husband would go out and cut
down Lodgepole Pines near

“I’ve been around horses
all my life, I jockeyed and
rodeoed,” he said. “Even-
tually I got hurt and quit
