Travel back to the days of the Cherokee Outlet and immerse yourself in History Alive! on the Cherokee Strip, the living history adventure at the Cherokee Strip Regional Heritage Center in Enid.<\/p>\n
Held year-round on the first and third Saturday of each month from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., this event transforms the five historic buildings of Humphrey Heritage Village into a bustling scene from the territorial era. Costumed interpreters fill the village with stories and demonstrations from the late 1800s. Take a seat at a wooden desk in the 1896 Turkey Creek schoolhouse as lessons unfold, listen to pioneers spin their tales in the shops, and marvel at artisans shaping their crafts. Wander through the 1905 Glidewell house, pause at the 1902 church, or try your hand at period trades and even file your own land claim at the 1893 US Land Office. Discover the one-room log cabin, lovingly rebuilt on site, originally crafted by the Sneed family in 1900 after the Cherokee Outlet Opening.<\/p>\n
Launched as a monthly gathering in the winter of 2019, History Alive! has blossomed into a vibrant bimonthly tradition. Volunteers are always welcome to join the experience.<\/p>\n
