She’s been traveling around Southeast this summer for SEACC, but this will be her first time getting to meet some of our Juneau-based supporters. She’ll be joined by several of our Juneau-based staff members. Our table will have a small sign with our name on it, and our team will have some SEACC merch and name tags on.

SEACC will be at UAS Campus Kickoff in Juneau on Sept. 2 from 3 to 5 p.m. Stop by the SEACC table to learn about current action items, grab some free stickers, and discuss Southeast issues!

Our staff and board will be in town that week for a retreat, and almost all of us will be in attendance at the potluck.

We will be providing food to share, but guests are invited to bring any dishes and/or drinks that they would like.

If you can't catch us at the potluck, make sure to stop by our table at Whalefest that weekend.

The Juneau COP27 Meetup will happen at Overstreet Park — aka The Whale — where we will discuss and field questions on climate change from the public and media.

We will be hosting a Rally for Alaska’s Climate on Friday, Feb. 3, at noon at the Dimond Courthouse Plaza, to show our legislators that we as Alaskans are demanding responsible climate action be taken this year!

POSTPONED TO A LATER DATE DUE TO WEATHER The National Roadless Rule has been officially restored to the Tongass National Forest! After four hard years of comment periods, community meetings, postcards, and announcement after announcement, we can finally take a moment to reflect, and to celebrate. SEACC will be hosting a celebration at our Juneau office (2207 Jordan Avenue) on Wednesday, Feb. 15 from 6 to 8 p.m. There will be door prizes, potluck-style food and drinks, cards to write thank you notes to the Biden administration, and a few speakers who’ll give some brief comments and reflections. It's going to be a fun time — we look forward to seeing you there!

The National Roadless Rule has been officially restored to the Tongass National Forest!

Join us for our rescheduled Roadless Rule Celebration and Potluck on Saturday, March 18, at the Juneau Yacht Club (1301 Harbor Way) starting at 5 p.m. All SEACC’s staff and board — including those who normally live and work outside of Juneau — will be in town that week for our spring board meeting, so you’ll get to chat and eat with more of us than usual. We know spring is busy, so feel free to stop by for as little or as long as you’d like. There will be door prizes and blank thank-you notes for thanking the Biden administration for their decision. And of course, it’s a potluck, so please bring a dish you’d love to share!
