A Very Uneventful
Summer
"Summer seemed to have started a
little early this year. Some king salmon showed up here around
Marshall during the last week of May.
During the third week of May I had
sent my engine block into Anchorage to get my cylinder walls
re-sleeved and to have some other work done on it. I called over
during the first week of June to see if they were done with it but
they said they were waiting for parts that had to be back ordered.
During that time Ellen's sister, Olga, came up from Sitka to cut some
fish. If it weren't for Ellen's brother Bill she would have left
Marshall without cutting any fish. Bill gave us 15 king salmon to
cut. Ellen and Olga cut them into strips. Summer was very uneventful
for me.
Commercial fishing wasn't very good,
price wise. Salmon berries around here were few and far in-between.
Since we didn't get much king salmon to put away, we're in the
process of smoking, freezing, and canning silver salmon.
Since I am the mayor I also worked in
the city office this summer. We received a RDA-forest service mini
grant of $30,000 for a public/private partnership with Mas. Inc. to
promote economic development. We also received a grant from PHS
administered by Village Safe Water for sewer lift stations upgrade,
and purchased some used heavy equipment for $75,000 with the same
grant. The city also got a used ambulance from Anchorage for free to
be used for the water treatment plant power operator projects. That
was about all that happened in the office.
School days are here again and so is
another season of making sure that our kids get up during school days
and make it to school on time."
