How to Find Upcoming Events and Announcements from the Delaware Tribe of Indians
Updated
The Delaware Tribe of Indians posts its time-sensitive information in two places on delawaretribe.org: an Upcoming events section for dated gatherings, and an Announcements section for notices such as elections and program updates. Both appear on the homepage, so you can check them without navigating deeper into the site. If you want details or a fuller schedule, follow the "view all events" link in the events area.
Where events and announcements live on the site
The homepage is organized so that current items surface first. You will see:
- Announcements — repeated as a heading for each notice, covering items like election deadlines and program development.
- Upcoming events — a short list of dated events with a "view all events" link for the complete calendar.
- services and programs — a separate section for ongoing tribal services rather than one-time events.
Because announcements and events are separate sections, a single visit to the homepage gives you both the calendar and the administrative notices.
Examples of what is currently posted
The site lists specific, dated items you can act on:
| Item | Date / detail |
|---|---|
| Delaware Days 2026 | October 2 & 3 |
| 3rd Annual 10K | October 3, 2026, 9:00 am |
| Absentee Ballot Request for 2026 Tribal Elections | Announcement |
| Lenape Word A Day Calendar | October 2026 edition available |
| LIHEAP Applications | Download available |
| 2026 Calendar | Download available |
Delaware Days 2026 is flagged with a "Save The Date" note and a "Click for more info" link, which is where you would go for the full schedule and participation details. The 10K appears under Upcoming events with its start time.
Announcements carry the time-sensitive notices
The Announcements section is where the Tribe puts items that are not events but still have deadlines or open calls, such as:
- Absentee Ballot Request for 2026 Tribal Elections — relevant if you need to vote remotely.
- Lenape Language Program — the Cultural Education Department is gathering information on community needs for a future program, with a "Click for more information" link.
- Climate Adaptation Plan — a published planning document.
- Vacancy for Teton Trade Cloth by Lenape Board — a board vacancy with a download link.
These are the items most likely to change or expire, so they are worth checking before an event you plan to attend.
How to check for updates
- Open delawaretribe.org and read the Announcements entries at the top of the page.
- Scroll to Upcoming events for the dated list, then select view all events for the full calendar.
- Follow the "Click for more info" or download links attached to the specific item you care about — for example, the Delaware Days 2026 link or the LIHEAP application download.
- Revisit periodically, since election notices, program calls, and calendar releases are added as they become available.
If a link does not open a detail page, the homepage entry itself is the notice, and the download or contact route is the next step.
