Michicot Pumpkin Fest






Saturday, October 20th, 2007 was a beautiful day in Michicot, WI, for Pumpkin Fest, and TAVOIS! added to the festivities. Performing on a small stage on Main Street, we played a variety of our originals, as well as a number of fun "pumpkin carols" to entertain the folks attending the community event. Our favorite was "Pumpkin Bells", sung to "Jingle Bells", and Maria spiced it up adding the cow bell as Soozee sung the chorus. We also did some drumming, and had a few children join us in the rhythm-making. After performing, we browsed the various vendor booths, and watched/participated in the dancing by a drum/dance group of Potawatomi Indians. Michicot is named after the historic figure, Chief Michicot, of the Potawatomi Nation. The Potawatomi onced inhabited the Michicot area.
