Link to August 8 Oil City Derrick article.

Excerpt: It is the annual Tionesta Indian Festival, a celebration of the community and its heritage that has its origins in the mid-1960s.

The festival, one that began using a Native American theme with the presentation of a play called "Out of the Forest," was started by local businessmen, including the Faulkner brothers, owners of the Red & White Grocery Store, Ren Agnew, Paul McWilliams and others.
