A popular festival that celebrates Native American culture went on as planned in Hernando County, despite the wet and cold weather this weekend.

The sun came out on Sunday and the singing and dancing heated up.

Native American culture, history and more, were all on display near Brooksville.

"Today we have the wind but we do have the sun out, so that is a good thing," said Native American dancer John Moore.

The third annual Brooksville Native American Festival did not skip a beat, even though this weekend's weather was not ideal for being outside. It was cold and windy Sunday and rainy most of Saturday.

"We were sweating it there a little bit," said festival co-organizer Paul DeLuna. "Last year, I think it was 75 degrees the same weekend. You never know with Florida."

DeLuna said attendance is down about 10 to 15 percent compared to last year thanks to the weather, but he is still very happy with the turnout.

"People still come out," he said. "We dance and sing in the rain no matter what, all weather."

The trick is to bundle up, stay warm and enjoy the show.

"Little bit chilly, but should be good for us for dancing," said Moore.

Organizers say they plan to have the festival again next year.
