MARINERS WALL – Dan Rasmussen mortars a memorial brick at the Mariners Wall this afternoon as his son, Dan, and Bronwyn Walton, of Southeast Alaska Women in Fisheries, look on. About 40 new bricks are being integrated into the memorial which honors departed fishermen, boats and others. Walton says the current collection of bricks represents about three years of dedications. Rasmussen, who besides being a fisherman is also a union brick layer, is donating his services. To purchase a brick to benefit SEAWIF programs, contact Walton at (505) 269-0906.

Daily Sitka Sentinel
Thanks to the generosity and expertise of the the Central Council of Tlingit and Haida Indian Tribes of Alaska broadband department, Tidal Network ; Christopher Cropley, director of Tidal Network; and Luke Johnson, Tidal Network technician, SitkaSentinel.com is again being updated. Tidal Network has been working tirelessly to install Starlink satellite equipment for city and other critical institutions, including the Sentinel, following the sudden breakage of GCI's fiberoptic cable on August 29, which left most of Sitka without internet or phone connections. CCTHITA's public-spirited response to the emergency is inspiring.
