On behalf of the Sheldon Museum, I would like to thank the following people for all their help, donations of time, and supplies and advice: Chip Lende at Lutak Lumber, Sonny Myers and Jim Schnabel from Alaska Power and Telephone, Ralph Borders and the crew from Public Works, Jim Shook, Shori Heaton, Dayton and Sarah Long and Robin Stickler from Wolverine Ready Mix, and Steve and Sarah Virg-In for shop space.

I would like to give a special thanks to Lani Hotch, Jack Strong, Daniel Klanott and all the other Jilkaat Kwaan Heritage Dancers who performed the dedication ceremony for the museum’s new totem pole.

The pole was funded by a bequest from the estate of Harriet Bracken, sister of former museum curator Lib Hakkinen.
