Not too far from Holliday Lake State Park along the Appomattox River was a Native American village where people began living about 6,000 years ago.

“Evidence of their existence can be found scattered across this region in the form of a very important tool: the projectile point. Stones shaped by force and attached to end of a wooden shaft became the predominant method for hunting and defense for this culture and others around the world,” officials said in a press release.

The release cited that this program is designed for anyone 10 years of age and older. “Pre-registration is required if your group has 10 or more individuals,” officials said in the release.

The program is set for May 19 from 10-11 a.m.
