AKWESASNE — The Saint Regis Mohawk Tribal Council announces that registration is now open for membership to participate in the Monthly Tribal Meeting being held on Saturday, Ohiarihkó:wa/July 9, 2022. It will be a hybrid meeting that will permit tribal members to attend in-person at the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort Ballroom or virtually using Zoom.
The July 9th Tribal Meeting begins at 10:00 a.m. and is being chaired by Tribal Chief Ron Lafrance. The meeting agenda includes Community Recognition of Section X Championships for the Salmon River Boys & Girls Varsity Lacrosse Teams, Salmon River Boys Varsity Baseball Team, and Massena Central’s Varsity Girls Softball Team; followed by a land claims update and presentations from North Country Community College, Akwesasne Freedom School, and the Akwesasne Boys & Girls Club.
Tribal members who want to join virtually must register before 4:00 p.m. on Friday, July 8th by clicking on the following link: https://bit.ly/39XxNYR. The online registration process allows the Tribal Clerk’s Office to verify tribal enrollment, as monthly tribal meetings are intended for membership only.
Following verification, you will receive an approval e-mail from Zoom, with a link to “Join Meeting”. Save the e-mail and make it easily accessible on your computer to avoid delays when joining. Please join the meeting at least 10 minutes prior to test your computer’s audio to pose questions or provide comments.
Tribal members attending in-person do not need to register in advance.
The Monthly Tribal Meeting agenda package and presentations will be available on the Tribal Members Portal prior to the meeting.
