Traditional Native Games

Chunkey

Qualifying Event
Traditional Native Games are back! All are welcome for fun and fellowship. The first six events are qualifiers for the Traditional Native Games Championship. All games are open to the public and are at no cost to the competitor or spectator.

Chunkey is an exciting game that was played in Cherokee villages for centuries. One player rolls a stone, and as it goes, the others throw a spear to the point where the stone will stop. The player whose spear is closest earns a point.
