The Mittark has always been a place for the Mashpee Wampanoag community to stay connected — by sharing news, celebrating milestones, and honoring the people who make our Tribe strong. We invite Tribal members and families to help keep that spirit alive by submitting stories, updates, and announcements to be included in future issues.

Whether it’s a family milestone, a child’s achievement, an elder you would like to recognize, or a community event you want others to know about, your stories help strengthen the bonds that connect us as a people.

What You Can Share

Community members are encouraged to submit information for the following sections:

Our Circle
The Our Circle section is a space for Tribal members to share reflections, thoughts, or perspectives on topics that matter to our community. These submissions help amplify community voices and foster dialogue.

Special Mentions
Special Mentions are a way to recognize Tribal members for accomplishments, acts of kindness, leadership, or moments worth celebrating — from graduations and awards to personal achievements and community service.

Community News & Events
Have an upcoming event, gathering, or announcement? Sharing event information helps ensure our community stays informed and connected.

How to Submit

Please email your submissions to:
publicrelations@mwtribe-nsn.gov
or steven@smokesygnals.com

When possible, include names, dates, a brief description, and photos to help bring your story to life. Submissions may be edited for clarity and length.

The Mittark is strongest when it reflects the voices and experiences of our people. By sharing your stories, you help ensure that our children, families, and elders remain seen, celebrated, and connected.

We look forward to hearing from you.
