Description


Council Oak Tree Site on the Hollywood Seminole Indian Reservation

The Council Oak Tree is an historic oak tree on the Hollywood Seminole Indian Reservation in Hollywood, Florida, at the intersection between U.S. 441 (State Road 7) and Stirling Rd. It has been the site for many important events in the history of the Seminole Tribe of Florida at least as far back as 1957. Some of the ones in the early 21st century include the 25th Anniversary celebration for the birthplace of Indian gaming (2004), the Tribe's 50th Anniversary celebration (2007), and the signing of the Seminole Gaming Compact (2010). The tree's image serves as a tribal logo.[3] On December 4, 2012, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places as Council Oak Tree Site on the Hollywood Seminole Indian Reservation.[1]
