Cherokee Nation citizen Erin Poor (far left) gives a short speech during a protest outside of the Lancaster County-City Building on Wednesday. Members of the group also say they’ll pursue legal protections of the sweat lodge, which is on about 2 acres of private land surrounded by Wilderness Park and across the street from the planned Wilderness Crossing development near First Street and Pioneers Boulevard, just east of U.S. 77.
