PARK HILL, OK---This Thursday and Friday the Cherokee Heritage Center has been host to hundreds of school children during its Ancient Cherokee Days.

Students enjoyed activities such as shooting hand-made blowguns, corn grinding, stick ball and received a glimpse into the lifestyle of the Cherokee.
