OKMULGEE, Oklahoma — The Muscogee (Creek) Nation Council House celebrated their 2nd annual Christmas Tree lighting ceremony in Downtown Okmulgee prior to the city’s “Festival of Lights” Christmas parade.
Carolers from Belvin Baptist Church sang Christmas songs in both English and Mvskoke language.
A special appearance was made by MCN’s own Santa Claus during the ceremony.
“I was pleased to see all the younger attendees meet our Santa,” Principal Chief James Floyd said. “The Nation is happy to host and bring cheer, anything we can do to set the holiday spirit.”
