Kiowa Leadership
This is intended to be a history of the Chairmen elected by the Kiowa Tribe since the Constitution was adopted in the 1970's. Our tribal government is still young and still growing.

Diana A Model Princess
I am such a royal fashion watcher! Loved Princess Diana and all the English royal manners, fashion, and people. This is a great fashion history of how a Lady went from an Aristocrat to a Princess.

These may get a little bit mixed up in the dates but I am trying to list them as I find information. This was published in June 1994
The Kiowa Tribe has elected Billy Evans Horse its new chairman. He narrowly defeated incumbent Herschel "Ace" Sahmaunt on Saturday."

Still No Leadership
As we go into the new year there still has not been any changes in the leadership. The last Chairman we had was Ron TwoHatchet. He resigned and its been a different story each time I read. The constitution does not seem to apply when we have dissention among our tribe. But I think I will begin with the last Chairman (elected by the people) and go back. I'm not sure how much information I can get for their biographies but I will certainly try!

Kiowa Business Committee as of July 27, 2011
- Chairman: Ronald "Dawes" TwoHatchet
- Vice Chairperson: Amber C Toppah
- Secretary: Charlotte Bointy
- Committeeman: Ricky Horse
- Committeeman: Stephen Smith
- Committeeman: Alva D. Tsoodle
The Kiowa Business Committee deemed the recall election as "illegal" claiming the recall procedures were not followed.
2013 State of Kiowa Affairs
There have been relatively few articles in the paper regarding the state of the governing body of the Kiowa Tribe. The last article written was that the Chairman, Ronald TwoHatchet had resigned. The Kiowa Indian Council prior to his resignation had recalled by vote the entire Kiowa Business Committee with the exception of the committee member, June Artichoker. However, the Bureau of Indian Affairs was still recognizing the recalled members and therefore there is no evident Kiowa Indian Council recognized Kiowa Business Committee with the exception of June Artichoker. Amber Toppah had announced that she is recognized as the "Acting" Chairwoman of the Kiowa Tribe. But as to date there has been no official swearing in for the recalled Business Committee to remain in office. The Kiowa Tribal Complex is open for business operating under the supervision of the Bureau of Indian Affairs. So the true government is still unrecognizeable.
