Native Heritage Night – Claim Your Complimentary Tickets

Did you know lacrosse was the first-ever game played in what is now known as North America? The game was gifted to us by The Creator to drive away sickness and create positive energy. We never forget.

This year the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians will have their youth and men Stickball (original form of lacrosse) teams demonstrate a Stickball match in Ball Ground, GA. A representative from Cherokee will be explaining the Stickball game and how to play while the game is going on. Vendors from EBCI will be there as well to teach more about the Native culture to those in attendance.
