Tribal Grounds Shine Bright!
One of the things that you'll notice at the Annual Pow Wow and Cultural Gathering this fall are some improvements. Running Wolf, Nighthawk, and several others worked over the weekend of August 11-13 to cut all the light poles down to a more manageable height and installed all new LED lights on the drum stand.
Wado, Northern Cherokee Nation citizens who helped with the project.

EXECUTIVE ORDER
In consideration of concerns expressed by tribal members and my own assessment of the probability of serious incidents, I hereby order and declare that, effective immediately, animals of any kind including pets, livestock and any others will no longer be allowed inside the tribal office complex or the kitchen building at any time.
However, in certain situations when an individual wishes to attend a tribal function and is so severely disabled as to require the constant assistance of an officially certified service animal, an exception to this ban may be allowed upon approval by the Principal Chief with the concurrence of the Chief Elder.
This ban is limited to the tribal buildings and does not include the tribal grounds. However, any animals on the grounds must be restrained by leash, tether, cage, pen or other means at all times. Free roaming animals on the tribal grounds will be subject to impoundment.
