At the Alaska Native Brotherhood and Alaska Native Sisterhood 109th Grand Camp Convention, Marcelo Quinto of Juneau was elected ANB president and Daphyne Albee of Seattle was elected ANS president.
The convention, held in Juneau in October, was a hybrid event, with participation in-person as well as on-line.
“We’re looking forward to a year of progress with these great officers working together. We are from different towns and different generations with a common dedication to civil rights,” Albee said.

Woodrow Watson, Saxman, ANB Grand First Vice President;
Heather Powell, Hoonah, ANS Grand First Vice President; Paul Johnson, Ketchikan, ANB Grand Second Vice President; and Cyndi Reeves, Anchorage, ANS Grand Second Vice President.

By GIL TRUITT: It seems like only yesterday that I was aboard the Alaska Coastal Airlines Grumman Goose, taking off from Wrangell, headed for my hometown, Sitka, in February 1947. I was a student at Wrangell Institute at the time but that was quickly forgotten when the “Goose” pulled up on the Japonski Island ramp. The big student movement to Sitka from Wrangell had begun. The creation of Mt. Edgecumbe High School was under way.
