An annual celebration surpasses three decades of honoring the Muscogee people at the Ocmulgee National Park in Macon, GA.
Saturday, the park’s Native American Games demonstration is at 2 p.m. for 30 minutes. The fun, active event allows kids to learn about the games Mississippians played here in years past.
Ocmulgee Mounds National Park is set to expand its boundaries following a recent land donation.
Macon-Bibb County and the Macon Housing Authority have donated several land parcels near the Davis Homes community totaling 3.62 acres to the park.
According to the park service, it's the most sacred site to the Muskogee Creek Tribe, and was the last place the tribe inhabited before they were moved to present day Oklahoma.
