Absentee Shawnee Veterans Receive Eagle Feather

Pictured L-R: Tribal member James Spybuck Jr. accepting on behalf of Taren Williams; Taren

Williams, Raymond Tiger, Bill Bayliss, Elijah Foreman, Walter Larney and Boyd Ponkilla.

Several Absentee Shawnee Veterans recently received eagle feathers. The ceremony

was held May 16 at the AST Veteran trailer before the AST Veterans Association

regular monthly meeting.

Veterans receiving feathers include – Taren Williams, Raymond Tiger, Bill Bayliss,

Elijah Foreman, Walter Larney and Boyd Ponkilla.

“Across many traditions and generations, the eagle feather has represented the

highest form of respect. It is not given lightly. It is earned through character, sacrifice,

leadership and dedication to others.” Said Taren Williams on receiving her eagle

feather.

Williams, who also serves as Commander of the AST Veterans Association, wishes

to thank these veterans on their service, “On behalf of the Absentee Shawnee Veterans

Association and tribe as a whole, we thank you for your service, your example and

your commitment. May you take possession of this token of honor with pride,

humility and the knowledge that your efforts are deeply appreciated and will not be

forgotten.”

Veterans have always held a unique and honored place within the tribe. For

generations, our tribal men and women have served in the armed forces at a higher

rate than any other ethnic group. These brave veterans continue to answer the call to

serve and carry on the warrior tradition.

Hello Tribal Members,

Can you believe it is June already? We

are halfway through 2026, before you

know it Christmas will be here. Living

in Oklahoma you know how the weather is, very unpredictable. April had many

storms and tornadoes. May has brought

in warmer temperatures with a few cooler days and more tornadoes. And I hope

June brings in good decent weather with

no severe storms and no tornadoes. Once

again, always stay weather aware.

I attended the Tribal Leaders Energy

and Safety summit. This summit gave

Diane Ponkilla

Greetings Tribal Members,

I hope everyone has been doing well,

staying weather aware and getting your

spring cleaning done for this year. The

first part of May we had our Tribal Ceremonies, it was great being at our grounds

seeing all the relatives. This was the first

Ceremony setting up our camp and doing everything without my Kokoge by my

side, but I know she would be really proud

that we are continuing our traditions and

everything she has taught us. I’ve been

very busy with weekly and monthly meetings. On May 13 I assisted our Agriculture Department with our calves, 21 were

castrated and we worked 40 other calves.

Joseph Blanchard, AST Treasurer

Hello Family, Friends, and Tribal Members:

As I begin this month’s edition, June

is officially upon us; which means our

Spring ceremonies have been completed

and Indian football season is ongoing. I

was extremely happy to see new faces and

the multiple groups represented. In Chief

White’s comments Sunday morning, he

mentioned, “It made his heart happy to

see so many cars parked over the hill.” At

our camp, there was small talk about the

number of young folks viewing but not

participating. It is our job and responsibility to encourage, guide, and mentor the

next generation to carry these ways into

the future. On a personal note, I enjoy

seeing both our men and women express

their creativity, share their knowledge and

skills, view the beautiful display of colors

and pageantry, and hear the melodies. It

is a reminder we are all AST.

Normally in May, I hardly ever schedule travel outside the State due to our

cultural activities. As it happened, the

Annual Spring NAFOA Conference occurred right at the end of April. 6 staff

(1 EC, 1 Health, and 4 Tribal) attended

to gather the latest information regarding

Finance and business operations and represent our Tribe and Health System. This

Hello Tribal Members,

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer. The Fifth Annual Day of Champions

Camp is scheduled June 3rd-June 4th, at

Little Axe Stadium. Thank you to our AST

TERO Director, Sarah Lawerance, for

organizing this free sports camp for our

tribal and community members. June 6th,

I will travel with our AST Historic Preservation department to attend the Great

Council State Park Heritage Celebration

a wide range of safety protocols just in

case something happens to our power

and energy. With everything going on in

the world it is safe to be ten steps ahead.

With this in mind, I think solar energy is

going to make a big difference for our future. Solar energy will help keep us functioning if something tragic was to happen

to our power grid. I will continue to look

into this because I truly believe that going

solar will be beneficial for the tribe and

our people.

The Rep, myself and the Cultural preservation department will be heading back

to Ohio. They have made several dedications to the Shawnee people. This next

dedication will be the bike bridge. We

are very honored to be apart of this. I

give lots of praise to the museum, Ohio

Governor, and the employees for working

diligently to dedicate this location to our

people. It is a true honor.

Should you have any comments or concerns you may always call or email myself

or my assistant at the emails listed below.

We will do our best to address your concerns.

We do have a bottle calf that our staff is

tending to along with their other duties.

The month of May was MMIP (Missing

Murdered Indigenous People) awareness

month I attended a walk at the Citizen

Potawatomi Nation on May 14th. Our

Rising Warrior Department (D.V.) had

their MMIR (Missing Murdered Indigenous Relatives) walk May 27th it was a

great turn out. We partnered with Seminole Nation for this event. I hope to always try to have a great relationship with

other Tribes especially our surrounding

Tribes. As the great Chief Tecumseh said

“A single twig breaks, but the bundle of

twigs is strong.” I believe having unity

and working together with other Tribes

is great moving forward for everyone.

On May 16th the Veterans were donated

some eagle feathers and they presented

them to some of our Veterans that attend

the meeting. May 22nd our Agriculture

Department had their starter plant distribution for our Tribal Members it’s always

good to see everyone and help them in

their gardens the best we can.

May was also Foster Care Appreciation

month our ICW Department. They had

an event for the foster families to show appreciation for all they do in helping with

our children. We are always in desperate

need for foster families. As mentioned

at General Council by other Executive

Committee Members about our Foster

Care Board since the announcement of

needing board members we have had two

Letter of Interest that were submitted but

have yet to be approved by the Executive Committee. I hope to get this board

formed very soon. Since there is no board

in place at the moment per Juvenile Code;

Chapter 4; Section 404; The Indian Child

Welfare Department pursuant to rules

not inconsistent with this Chapter which

it shall develop and file, shall have the authority to approve Foster Care and other

alternative care homes for children. On

May 28th I attended a POGO meeting.

The guest speaker was a 3-time National Champion Charles Clark. It was very

inspirational to hear him speak. We have

a lot of events coming up in June such as

the 5th Annual Day of Champions Football and Fastpitch camp June 3rd and 4th,

the 5th Annual Fishing for Nutrition on

June 12th, and the 3rd Annual Protecting

Ancestral Legacy Elder Abuse Awareness

event on June 18th. If you should have

any questions or concerns please contact

my office (405)275-4030 Ex. 3505.

ensures we maintain compliance with all

applicable AST laws, policies, and guidelines but also with our counterpart U.S.

Treasury and I.R.S. requirements since we

receive Federal funding. I also met with

current and new clients, to hear or receive

proposals for potential job growth, expansion and investment, and other financial opportunities. The best part is I get to

maintain my network and communicate

with Tribal and Business Leaders from

across the U.S. There is always good conversation about the success and failure of

the respective regions.

The last part of my report will be associated to our Elders and the Title VI programs. Last week, I finalized negotiations

with the ownership of the former Arrow

Café and presented the information back

to the Executive Committee. Upon receipt of the paperwork, I forwarded it to

the Governor’s office for signature. As

of this writing, we should officially take

possession of the property by the end of

May. Once we have received the title and

deed, we can turn on utilities to make the

final assessment and determine the costs

and timeframe before the facility can be

opened. I am hopeful they can begin

serving meals in July.

I received an invitation from the Elder’s Council to attend their May monthly meeting. Though it was my birthday

weekend, I rescheduled some things to

fulfill the request. I was able to provide an

update for their upcoming trip to Tama,

Iowa later this summer. I shared thoughts

on the function and responsibility of their

group and why they receive funds from

the Tribe. But, there was one question

about funding that really stuck with me;

let me share some data.

There are approximately 900 Elders,

aged 55 and over. Over the last several

years, there are an estimated 50-60 enrolled in the program and 25-30 that actively participate. If we do the math, the

percentages are 6.7% and 3.3% respectively. I do what I can to support their

actions but like a lot of other groups in

the Tribe, numbers are low. Someone will

make a ton of money if they can figure out

the age old question of defeating apathy

and how to secure greater inclusiveness.

As I wrap up this month’s update, I want

to again say “Congratulations!” to all the

graduates. Many of you have made your

relatives proud for your accomplishment.

Many don’t see the sacrifice or struggles

one goes through to get to this point.

Stand up and be seen because you have

become a part of something greater than

you thought possible...an Educated Indian. After all the criticism, isolation, and

maltreatment; Native People are still here

and you persevered through all obstacles.

in Columbus, Ohio. During our site visit,

we will tour the park’s interpretive center, living history demonstrations, and

historical presentations. June 15th-June

16th, my office will attend the Sovereignty

Symposium XXXVIII in Oklahoma City.

The symposium is a legal conference held

annually and hosted by the Oklahoma

City University Law School. Tribal representatives and leaders from all thirty-nine

tribal nations in Oklahoma are invited to

attend the symposium to participate in

presentations and discussions focused on

tribal sovereignty, law, history, and culture. My office looks forward to the pre-

sentation of all the tribal nation flags at

the opening reception of the symposium

each year. June 25th-June 26th, the AST

477 program will host a Culture Camp for

tribal youth at the Camp property. Thank

you to the AST 477 program for hosting

this camp for our tribal youth. Should you

have any questions, comments, or need

my assistance, please contact my office by

phone:(405) 531-3512, or by email: adjohnson@astribe.com.

Important Notice for Applicants Receiving Property Tax or Homeowner’s

Insurance Assistance Through the HAF Program – General Program Updates

To: HAF Applicants (Past, Present, and Future),

We are writing to inform you of an important update regarding the Homeowner

Assistance Fund (HAF) Program. Per guidance from the U.S. Department of the

Treasury, the Period of Performance for HAF awards ends on September 30, 2026.

As a result, assistance provided through the HAF Program cannot extend beyond September 30, 2026.

While eligible applicants may still receive assistance for expenses incurred prior

to that date, HAF funds cannot be used to cover any charges, premiums, installments, or obligations that occur after September 30, 2026.

We understand this change may create hardship and frustration for some applicants. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. At the time

of award issuance, some applicants may have received award letters indicating approval for payment of property taxes, insurance, or other homeowner assistance

expenses extending beyond September 30, 2026.

However, based on new guidance from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, we

are required to update our program requirements and can no longer honor payments for any obligations that become due after September 30, 2026, regardless of

prior award communications. We regret this change and understand the impact

it may have, but we must comply with current federal guidance governing HAF

funding.

We want to clarify that assistance for mortgage payments, property taxes, insurance and utility bills may still be available; however, all such assistance will be

prorated and limited strictly to eligible costs incurred on or before September 30,

2026.

Please be advised that all approved assistance must comply with these federal

program requirements and timelines.

If you have questions regarding your eligibility or outstanding expenses, please

contact our office for additional guidance.

Sincerely,

AST HAF Program Coordinator, Keesha Mason
