The Mississippi band of Choctaw Indians had their groundbreaking of a new general store in Bogue Chitto and began with festivities of food, dancing, and lots of entertainment.

"We're going to be bringing a small retail store to the Bogue Chitto community," Anderson says. "It's something they've been looking forward to for many years now, and we broke ground today, and we are going to start construction Monday."

Anderson says the community is a little ways out from Philadelphia so this new general store will help the bogue chitto community with not having to travel so far.
