PROPOSED ORDINANCE
2026-ORD-001, Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe Jury Ordinance
Thursday, March 19, 2026
5:30-6:30 P.M. (E.T.)
The Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe, through the Mâseepee Cultural Council, extends heartfelt thanks to the Mass Cultural Council for its continued investment in Indigenous arts, culture, and community-based storytelling. We also express deep gratitude to our state legislators and the Massachusetts Legislature for supporting the arts through annual appropriations that make these opportunities possible for Tribal communities across the Commonwealth.
The Mashpee Wampanoag Youth Council would like to share an important update for families: the Winter Wonderland Youth Ball has been postponed and will now be held on Saturday, March 14.
Thank you to everyone who helped support our community through this unprecedented blizzard. During the storm, the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe Community and Government Center served as one of the few warming stations on Cape Cod—providing shelter, warm meals, and a safe place for Tribal members and neighbors from across the Cape. We were also grateful to welcome the linemen and crews working long hours to restore power throughout the region.
