Event Navigation
The Pioneer Woman Museum continues its fall lecture series on Saturday, November 7, at 10 a.m.
Dr. Sara J. Richter will give a presentation entitled “The Hominy Indians,” which will focus on the Hominy football team. Dr. Richter is currently the Dean of the School of Liberal Arts and Professor of English at Panhandle State University. “Few people, including Oklahomans, know that the Hominy Indians football club played nationally during the 1920s. Athletics traditionally have been valued in traditional Native American life, so developing a professional football team made up of Native American athletes seemed like a natural step,” said Dr. Richter.
The lecture is free to attend, with advanced reservations encouraged. For more information please call 580-765-6108 or email piown@okhistory.org
