American Seafoods Relaunches $150K Grant Program for Western Alaska
American Seafoods Group relaunched its grant program last week, now known as the American Seafoods Community Partnership Program. American Seafoods is the largest at-sea processor of wild Alaska pollock and hake in the U.S. and is based in Seattle, Washington. The program provides donations to organizations and groups in Western Alaska to fund community projects that address food security and other needs and will provide almost double the amount in grant funding under the new name. Under the program’s original name (Western Alaska Community Grant Program), American Seafoods stated, “Our goal is to provide assistance and financial support to organizations that are making a real difference in the communities where we operate.” According to sources, the rebranded initiative demonstrates American Seafoods’ long-standing commitment to supporting Western Alaska communities. As part of the launch, the company is increasing its donation total from $90,000 per year to $150,000 per year, with $75,000 total to be awarded every six months. The program has existed since 1997 and has granted over $2 million to organizations and programs in the state. The company’s CEO, Einar Gustafsson, stated that the program began in the 90s out of a desire to help Alaskan communities. “American Seafoods depends on our Alaskan communities and our Alaskan crew members, and this new name change, revamped focus, and the increased monetary contribution further highlights our commitment to partnering with and giving back to Western Alaska. Over the years, American Seafoods’ contributions have made a significant impact, and we look forward to continuing as we sustainably harvest wild Alaska pollock.” Past program beneficiaries include the Bristol Bay Native Association Food Bank and Kodiak, Alaska’s Brother Francis Shelter. The company will accept applications through September 16, 2024; most awards will range from $1000 to $7500 each. Applications will be accepted for the following regions: Kodiak Island, Aleutian and Pribilof Islands/Western Alaska Peninsula, Bristol Bay, Lower Kuskokwim, Lower Yukon, Norton Sound, and communities north.

Washington Bracing for Bitter Cold in Latest Winter Outlook
We haven't fiished with Summer yet, and predictions are already in for Winter. Winter isn't my favorite season, which is why this Minnesota gal moved to the West coast. Personally, Fall is my favorite, followed by Spring, Summer, and THEN, Winter. As a young child, when the first snow fell, we prayed there would be enough for sledding. Of course, in Minnesota, sometimes snow arrived as early as Halloween. What a joy that was!

2024 Seahawks 53 Man Roster Prediction and Breakdown
I’ve only attended 2 camp practices, 1 in pads, and broken down the all-22 of the Chargers and Titans a couple times each. Quite a reduction from my usual offseason routine, having 3 kids in 4 years will do that. In my offseason breakdown posted back in January I had Connor Williams, Jerome Baker, Tyrel Dodson, and George Fant as targets in free agency, so I still feel I have a pretty good grasp of what the team will look like come 4pm ET on August 27th. Of course, there are usually one or two surprise cuts, a trade, and a waiver claim, so the 53 players on the roster come opening day on September 8th will likely have a few names not mentioned here, probably at guard, tight end, &/or linebacker.
