A New Era for the Shinnecock Nation - Express Sessions - Conversations Not To Be Missed

Description:

With 10 acres of tribe-owned land off Sunrise Highway being cleared for a possible travel plaza, which would feature a retail shop and tax-free gasoline pumps, the Shinnecock Nation continues forward with a list of economic development activities. Not far away are the two "monuments," roadside electronic billboards bringing in advertising revenue. LIttle Beach Harvest recently opened the first nation-owned marijuana dispensary on Shinnecock territory. Other developments on the table include a cannabis growing facility, and perhaps a spa, as well as a gaming facility. With this Express Sessions event, we will talk with Shinnecock business leaders on their vision of the future, and the impact the new revenue is having -- and with local leaders on their response to a new era for the Shinnecock Nation.
