Hello all of my wonderful friends and family, I need help finding my dog, if you’re out enjoying a hike in the Crow Pass area any time soon.

She was lost in the hills above the Crow Pass cabin, in the Jewel Glacier area on the evening of August 21, 2010 during the thunder, lightning, and fog storm. The hike originated in Girdwood.

She is a calico-colored Sprint husky mix, with a white chest, 4 white feet, and a white muzzle and diamond between her eyes. She has blue eyes, and should have a blue collar with identification (her name is “Blue”). She weighs approximately 65 pounds. She’s very friendly

If you have any information on her whereabouts, please call

Sonya at 244-1569 or Scott at 244-9212 Thank you for helping us find our baby!

posted in Alaska Community Events Written by IC 2010, July 12, 07:41:16 PM 243 Views Print Page

Curious if anybody is attending the concert in a few weeks at Chilkoot Charlie's in Anchorage. It should be fun an it's within my budget, so hopefully if anybody else can make it I'd like to hang out an meet new friends while I have the chance.

The show is on Saturday the 24th, I'm sure tickets are available online but it's gonna cost $35 at the door, an it's likely the only big event I'm gonna enjoy while I'm stayin in the area. Hope to meet anybody who shows up.

Quote from: Anchorage Pride

Alaska’s gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities (and our fabulous straight allies) will demonstrate our PRIDE for 10 colorful days in June as we celebrate Alaska PrideFest 2010. Our theme for 2010 is 2010 A PRIDE ODYSSEY.

Alaska PrideFest 2010 will take place June 18-27. During this ten-day period, various non-profit, social, and business organizations will host special events at venues around Anchorage. A highlight of PrideFest is always the Celebrating Diversity Parade which will take place at 11 a.m. June 26th through the heart of downtown Anchorage where we hope to see a beautiful day with a record crowd. After the Parade, please join us for the Festival on the Delaney Park Strip from noon until 6 p.m. The Festival will feature live entertainment, vendors, food, friends, a kiddie carnival, and fun, all under the glorious Anchorage summer sun.

Hay look theirs "Fabulous Straight" people. hehe.
