I would like to thank the Homer Kachemak Rotary Club for the generous scholarship I have received. I will be attending Southern Utah University this fall to study aviation. I am very passionate about flying and I’ve already begun flight training here in Homer to get my private pilot license this summer. My ultimate goal is to be an airline pilot and travel the world.
“Don’t like the weather in Alaska? Wait five minutes!” That’s the old joke that pretty accurately describes the last couple of weeks here in Homer. It’s spring. No, winter. No, spring. No, winter. Have no fear, the Betster is here to reassure you that warmer weather and longer daylight hours are on their way, and with them the return of the sandhill cranes, opportunities for fiddlehead and stinging nettle foraging, and dusting off your gardening tools. In the meantime, there’s no shortage of activities to keep you informed and entertained. Just check out these Best Bets!
