POW WOW RESCHEDULED FOR JUNE 2021
* Exact Dates to Be Announced Soon *
Osiyo Northern Cherokee!
This is a very important, and at the same time, a sad message to give to you all. After much discussion and deliberation, we are rescheduling our annual September pow wow until June of 2021. This is the smartest way we know to keep our citizens, drum, vendors and visitors safe. With all the government regulations of the pandemic, we felt this was the safe route to take.
Please continue to check this page and our Facebook page for further updates.

THREE IMPORTANT MESSAGES FROM THE TRIBE
The Tribal Complex needs some office supplies such as printer ink, paper, envelopes, stamps, file folders, and other office supplies. These items are generally purchased at Staples. If you can support in the purchase of these supplies, you can make a donation through our pay-pal button on our website, northerncherokeenation.com or mail your welcomed check(s) to Northern Cherokee Nation, P. O. Box 413, Cuba, Missouri 65453. We also accept Staples gift cards. Any questions, please feel free to call anytime at 660-885-7779. Remember this is your tribe, we do not receive state or federal funding, we are a 501c3 not for profit. We depend on your help.
To keep the tribal membership files current and accurate, please update your email addresses, mailing address, marriages, name changes, and family deaths. Send updates to northerncherokeenation@gmail.com or call the tribal office.
One of our largest fundraisers during the years is the annual auction that is conducted during the pow wow. If you have items to donate, or can collect items to be auctioned, please start gathering those now for the June 2021 auction. We especially appreciate items that may have Native American influence/connection, or would generate a high sales price. For questions, contact Twila Campbell at 314-574-4993, twilac03@gmail.com, or Keith Dobbs at 707-972-0145, ktdobbs@msn.com.
A MEMORIAL HOLIDAY WEEKEND ADVENTURE
FROM ONE OF OUR CITIZENS
Osiyo From The White Trash Six Star Resort
Is was a wonderful and productive Memorial Holiday!
We started Friday off with framing my soon-to-be sunroom. Followed by a fun time of snake shooting plus lessons in sweat ethics and stories and lies a plenty. All of this topped of by a dinner of 1/3 to 1/2 pound jumbo burgers, fries, and fresh fruit. A good night's rest was welcomed. Rain, wind, thunder and a light show serenaded us to sleep.
Saturday was relaxing, sunny, and more snake hunting.
Folks came from Tulsa, Osceola, and Clinton to work on tribal business. The main attraction of more food, a potluck. The menu included friend chicken, taters and pan gravy, glazed carrots, beverages, Rolaids and plenty of "anti-covid" hugs and kisses and laughs. All these activities were followed by a conference call with our awesome Chief Grey Elk. Some folks left for home in the evening to finish up chores after a busy afternoon filled with more laughs and lies. It was a good and much needed tribal family time. There is nothing like it!
Sunday brought more discussion about the 2021 rescheduling of our POW WOW and events to come. Our country-living experiences for Sunday included a dock burning, more snake hunting, chicken feeding, wasp spraying, barbequing, a dog and cat petting, food, and more food.
My thanks to all who came and participated in this tribal work weekend. It was truly a blessing to see you all.
After all the gifts of food and more food, I'm planning a spectator sporting event of sceptic tank pumping. All are invited. Special thanks to Deputy Chief Starr Tawny Eagle for the new "Gold Standard" gift of toilet paper, and more food!
Also, I thank Tony Running Wolf and his lovely wife Michelle for hours of backbreaking labor and a storm door for the kitchen, steaks, and more food. Thanks and love to Jane Buffalo Sister for food and that sinful cake, plus unafraid hugs.
Thanks to the talkative, side-splitting prankster Randy Pierson and our precious shy Teresa for salads and baked beans (more food) and hugs. Thank you all for the polling and input and meaningful discussion, and to Chief Grey Elk for listening.
Lies, stories, jokes and help are much appreciated. I love you all.
You will get my bill for this exciting country living experience. Payment due by the 15th of the month.

PS. All payments and donations go to support the Northern Cherokee Nation.
