Organizers said the fair dates back more than 100 years and continues to connect grandparents, parents and children.When asked what stood out most to them, several children quickly pointed to the parts of the fair they enjoy most...and the answers ranged from horseback riding to the pow-wow.For many families, Crow Fair has been part of life for years and now younger generations are stepping into the celebration themselves.Noel Two Leggins, executive director of Crow Fair, said the event carried an important role for the future of Crow traditions.“I hope they have an interest to continue the culture and tradition and to see our way of life being the teepee capital of the world," he said. "You know, we're not promised to be here forever and what my dream is for the youth and younger generation is to continue who we are.” Organizers said that passing traditions forward is not only about honoring earlier generations. They explained it's also about making sure young people could see themselves in those traditions and learn their meaning by being part of Crow Fair.The fair runs through Aug. 16th at the Crow Fairgrounds.</div></body>
