GRAND RONDE ROYALTY COURT
Susie Shaw
Participating in Royalty is an excellent opportunity for Tribal youth
to learn our traditions, powwow protocol, and public speaking.
Participants represent the Tribe by attending various community
events and powwows where we also work with the Veterans
Special Event Board (Veterans SEB) Royalty participants.
Serving on Royalty requires a considerable commitment from the
participant and their parents and/or sponsor. Royalty participants
(including parent or sponsor) must attend all required events and
activities: organizational meetings, powwows, parades, fundrais-
ers, and more. We encourage all Tribal youth ages 4 – 18 to join.
