UPDATE
​Call for Great Council 
My esteemed Nemenhah brothers and sisters,
No mothers within the Nemenhah have responded to the Nehm Tiwehkthihmpt's call to assemble, and therefore cannot nominate the next EPMC.  The Nehm Tiwehkthihmpt, therefore, in order to ensure the continuation of Nemenhah governance as provided in the Nemenhah Constitution, has determined the following:

The current Nehm Tiwehkthihmpt must necessarily retain the Executive Office of the Nemenhah People for an additional Great Council Cycle (one year), after which time the Mothers Council will again be called to nominate the next EPMC.  Pursuant to this determination, the Election of the Nehm Tiwehkthihmpt has been removed from this year's Agenda for the Council of Delegates.
 
To best safeguard and ensure the health and safety of our members, and to encourage the best possible level of participation from our active members, the remaining customary Sessions of the Great Council shall be administrated as follows:
 
COUNCIL OF DELEGATES
  • Date/Time: Thursday, August 25th 2022 – 07:00 PM CDT
