Windows Workshop
Set at Boathouse
Sitka’s Maritime Heritage Society invites the public to the Japonski Island Boathouse 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday, July 26, for a work party and workshop on historic windows restoration.
Participants will learn the ins and outs of rebuilding old-style windows.
‘‘Every hour of donated time counts twice, first in helping accomplish the work, but also because this workshop is part of an on-going effort to match a DNR Historic Preservation Fund grant with volunteer labor,’’ Sitka’s Maritime Hertage Society said.

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.
