An honoring ceremony to introduce our tribal chiefs to our community and visiting nations will be held in the traditional circle on the powwow field during the last day of the Mashpee Wampanoag Powwow at 1:00 PM on Sunday, July 6. The tribe will recognize our chief, Earl “Chiefie” Mills and his sagamore, Vernon “Buddy” Pocknett, and define the roles they play in our community. For tribal members who wish to do so, this will be an opportunity to honor the chiefs with traditional gifts.
