Are you passionate about preserving history and culture? Join the Creek Freedmen Cemetery Preservation Committee and help us protect our most sacred land. We've already completed and submitted Thomas Smith and Old Union Agency nominations for $8,000. Your donation towards the upkeep of these cemeteries would be greatly appreciated. It costs $400 per month to mow the TS cemetery. Your tax-deductible donation can make a real difference.
The cemeteries are within the boundaries of the Muscogee Creek Reservation, and the Tribal Historic Preservation Officer (THPO) for the Muscogee Creek Nation has to review, comment on, and ultimately approve the nominations. According to the Nation's constitution, these cemeteries must be protected and recognized by the National Park Service as Traditional Cultural Properties (TCPs). The THPO's comments and approval are due in July. Join us in preserving and honoring our heritage!
