Mar 21, 2019 | Alaska Native, News, Telecom & Tech

For everything from basketball and outhouse races to movie nights and cook-offs, hundreds of Southwest Alaska residents are gathering in Dillingham this week for the 61st Annual Beaver Round-Up.

One lucky winner at GCI’s Halftime Show Airplane Toss will receive an Apple Watch, courtesy of GCI, during the Old Timer’s Basketball Games on March 22.

“GCI is proud to support such a long-standing community tradition that brings people together from across Southwest Alaska,” said GCI Vice President of Corporate Communications Heather Handyside.

Beaver Round-Up kicks off March 20th and runs through March 24th.

What happens when a city with fewer than 300 residents becomes a major freight and tourism hub, despite being accessible only by boat, plane, or a one-lane highway/railroad tunnel managed on a strict schedule?

If you’re in the City of Whittier, you get busy. The city has two separate transportation planning efforts underway, including a safety action plan under the federal Safe Streets and Roads for All initiative, which focuses on improving safety for pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, and emergency responders. The second is Whittier Moves, the city’s transportation master plan, which serves as the long-term roadmap for growth.
