2 weeks ago the Wyandotte Nation’s Planning & Natural Resources Department held its 13th annual Environmental Festival on Friday, April 14, at the Tribe’s Pow-Wow grounds. Wyandotte Nation invited Wyandotte Public Schools, kindergarten through 8th grade to attend. Eight northeast Oklahoma tribes participated in this event, including the Wyandotte, Eastern Shawnee, Seneca-Cayuga, Cherokee, Modoc, Miami, Ottawa, and Peoria Tribes.
