CLICK HERE to listen to Cherokee Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. talk about plans for the birthplace of Will Rogers.
The ranch where Will Rogers was born in Oologah, Oklahoma, is now officially the property of the Cherokee Nation. Cherokee Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. said they have big plans for the ranch.
“We are going to make sure that it is repaired and restored in a way that is true to history that will be here for generations,” Hoskin said. “We will also make it more accessible to the public. We can market this in a way that will increase tourism here. That is good for the region.”
The chief says their goal with the ranch is to help new generations of people remember Will Rogers and the lives he touched.
