Here is one more nice pic of Blue Sky Water Society's land near Marble City. Blue Sky Water is heading up the idea of creating a Greenway of the Cherokee Ozarks which would link conservation areas from I-40 up to SH412 in a vertical corridor. This view looks off to the West.
Blue Sky Water is hosting an all-day Harvest Moon Festival on Saturday October 23rd at its cultural grounds. This is a friendly zone for adults and children. There you will find traditional Cherokee activities taking place, and you can participate or watch demonstrations. There will be basket making hosted by Cherokee Living National Treasure Betty Frogg. The men and boys may like to watch and perhaps learn flint knapping (making arrows) and watch the making of a traditional Cherokee longbow. Guys will also see and maybe try out their own skills in tieing fishing flies. Come and learn about natural medicines. You can taste traditional foods. Little ones will be bobbing for apples, and getting their faces painted. And for the gusty ones, a seed-spitting contest. ...This and more.
Events begin at 10 a.m. and will run thru till evening. Directions: From Tahlequah Oklahoma take the Cookson Game Reserve Road toward Marble City and just before you get to Marble City School you will see the entry, marked by flowers, balloons and or bales of hay. Everyone one is welcome. Activities and food are free. And did I say that Dennis and Kathy Tibbits (that's me) will be performing music? Bring friends and a lawn chair, and plan for just about any kind of weather.
