Spring
Spring time is here but we live in Alaska and that means people are traveling, hunting, fishing, & and enjoying the great outdoors! Its spring time and everyone is getting their spring time tan on! For this month Apapi has an update about the work that been going on with the Yup’ik Language and working with Dallia and Alice on Kepnerciq and working on new post bases with the high school students. Following her article you can read about the update in the Library on our State Battle Bookers and how well they did! In the last month if you noticed a few new faces in the village, no, you’re not seeing things, and the lodges are not here yet, but you’ll notice some new faces; meet Lorraine and Erik! If you see them please welcome them. I also would like to wish Halay and Jiles best of luck on your new adventure in your life and we will miss you here in Igiugig!
AJ is encouraging you to help make a difference and I’ll have you read what she has to say about that in her article and lets help her make a difference. Following her article you can read up on Jem’s poem about the Fox and the Primaries wrote a poem about Snow. Next to it you can read about Taty’s drive to Kokhanok. Walt wrote a wonderful poem about his Kokhanok Carnival experience which is followed up by Coach Alicia’s update on the Chignik Lake Districts. That is followed by people “out to play” photos of your favorite people and Announcements.
Enjoy your spring and be safe out there, always leave someone with a travel plan and pack a little extra for that “just in case” moment.
