26th Annual Cherokee Days of Recognition
By Andrew Millar

The beautiful scenery of Red Clay State Park was the setting of Cherokee Days this past August 2nd and 3rd. Both indoor and outdoor exhibits were on display for all who came and watched this amazing event of the Cherokee Indian culture.

Red Clay State Park was the last council grounds of the Cherokee nation before the Trail of Tears. The event opened at 10am on Saturday and Sunday closing between 4 and 5pm.

There were hand woven baskets, tools and trade of the era for people to purchase. The attention to detail and true Indian style was apparent in all the works. Dancers of all ages put on amazing demonstrations. There was even a blow gun tournament that was delightfully entertaining.
