RED CLAY, Tenn. – For many visiting the 28th annual Cherokee Days of Recognition, it’s about connecting to a cultural heritage – no matter how great or small the bloodlines may be.
Janet Kibler, of Cleveland, Tenn., said she brings her family every year because it’s an opportunity to learn about the Cherokee bloodline that is prominent through her family tree, and its culture.
“We have a lot of Indian blood running through our family,” Mrs. Kibler said Saturday. “We come here for the history, and I love the hands-on experience it gives my kids.”
