"We Under the moto of Serve", the Stilwell Kiwanis Club sponsors such diversified activities as the Boy S c o u t s ,t h e a n n u a l S t r a w b e r r y F e s t i v a l ,a n d t h e s u m m e r basebafl program lor area boys and girls. Club members participate in fund raising activities "Pancake such as Day" which traditionally is held the morning of the openrng day of deer season. The Strawberry Festival dates back to 1948 when the Stilwell Kiwanis Club decided to do something about stimulating interest in one of Adair County's major economtc resources. The Strawberry crop that year was valued at about "the biggest berry $ 7 5 O , O O Oa n d w a s d e s c r i b e d a s harvest the area has ever experienced." Short Season The strawberry season is relatively short, starting early in May and ending about June 1 - but it's long enough for everyone to get his or her share. Crates of strawberries sell especially fast on Strawberry Festival Day, so those wishing to buy are reminded to get lheir share as early in the day as possible. Growers will be in Stilwell on Festival Day to sell berries near the band stand where much of the action takes place. Hundreds of people, including migrant workers, sfudents and housewives, jump in each year to harvest the strawberry crop. A g o o d p i c k e r c a n p i c k a b o u t 1 O Oq u a r t b o x e s i n a s i x hour day. A few years ago, 73 pickers picked 25O crates lrom 2/z acres for one of the best days on record anywhere in the county. Local strawberry growers like rhe Cardinal variety best. Other popular varieties include Sunrise and Early Go. The experienced pickers use a variety of positions. Some stoop, others squat. kneel or sit. Those who sit say they remain seated and scoot from one plant to the next. The crop is sold at Stilwell area markets and to retail outlets in Tulsa, Muskogee, Fort Smith, Ark., and other cities. Many people f rom miles around drive to Stilwell each May to buy berries to take home for themselves, neighbors and relatives.

Stilwell was named for Arthur Edward Stilwell who built the Kansas City Southern Railwav, founded several dozen hamlets and villages, and created a city, port Arthur, Tex., named for himself. Between 18g6 ano 1912, he made sizable contributions to the economtc growth of the south-central states of Oklahoma. Arkansas, Louisiana. and Texas. Stilwell was a red haw thicket, intersoersed with persimmon trees, in 1895 when the Kansas City Southern Railway bought a right-of-way from M r s . M a r t h a J o h n s o n a n d M r s .

The United States Congress passed a bill in 1830 for the removal of the Five Civilized Tribes from the southeastern part.ofthe u.s. into Indian Territory, now known as Oklahoma. All of Adair County became a part of tne Cherokee Nation. Many Cherokees were already here when, in about 1838, the Eastern Cherokees were forced to leave their homes in Georgia, Tennessee, and North Carolina and were driven over the infamous "Trail of Tears," ending in the northern part of Adair County at Mission Mountain. About 91 per cent of thepersonsliving inthesouthern part of Adair County are of Cherokee descent. Also. the county has the greatest concentration of Cheroxee Indians in the United States.
