The PAIA
Lower Eastern Cherokee Nation SC has participated in the
Gray Court/Owings Pioneer Days since 2003. This event took
place in Owings until this year when it was moved to
downtown Gray Court to the Culbertson Back Country
Settlement. Our tribal members have walked in the parade
and carried the flags since the inception of this event. We
have sold our handmade crafts and in the past, we painted
faces with Indian designs. To learn more about this event
and the historical society who sponsors it, check out the
