Osiyo my friends! It's a beautiful Friday here in Tahlequah, and I hope the same goes for your location.

With the Cherokee National Holiday coming up (only 3+ months away!) Labor Day Weekend, things are starting to settle down at the Cherokee Nation as we begin a bulk of the preparations. So, this week we'll simply highlight a few events going on in and around the Cherokee Nation.

The Cherokee Heritage is accepting registrations for the Fifth Annual Cherokee Ancestry Conference. This is a two day conference in June to be held in Tulsa, OK. This should be a great event! So sign up now!!!

The Cherokee Nation is still accepting applications for the Cultural Day Camp to be held June 5h - June 30th in Tahlequah, OK. The Cultural Day camp is a great chance for your kids to learn about the culture and heritage of the Cherokee people! Here's a link to the Public Notice with more information:
