Being Keetoowah

By BOB GIBBINS
Staff Writer

Assistant Chief Charles Locust thanked the crowd for being part of the celebration. “It’s a good time to be a Keetoowah,” he said. “We’re proud to be Keetoowahs, and we want our people to be strong and watch the tribe grow.” He said the government is a good one, and there is accountability within it.

Samantha Keen, Miss Keetoowah Cherokee, and Kristy Feather Daugherty, Junior Miss Keetoowah Cherokee, were also introduced to the crowd, as was the United Keetoowah Cherokee Choir, which performed in Cherokee.
