20 YEARS AGO

April 2004

Sitka High girls track team took first-place honors at the Sitka Invitational track meet at Moller field, topping Juneau-Douglas. Sitka boys took second, falling to Juneau. Dianne Chong, Joy Ribao, Megan Lehmann, Kelsey Davidson, Greg Hunter, Glenn Chong and Kyle Ainslie all won events.

50 YEARS AGO

April 1974

Seventy cruise ship voyages have already been scheduled into Sitka for the summer of 1974 as compared with thirty voyages last summer. Starting June 1 Alaska Airlines will provide two north-bound and two south-bound flights every day, and the state Marine Transportation System has greatly increased the ferry service to Sitka.
