Homer Halfpipes!

Thanks to the coordinated efforts of the Friends of Homer Skate Park, the Homer Foundation and the City of Homer, the community raised over $20,000 to purchase two halfpipes that are now adjacent to the skateboard park at the HERC campus.  Special thanks to the City of Homer Public Works staff for the time and effort to construct and install them before the snow flies.

Author Talk: Doug Dodd

In honor of Veterans Day, local author Doug Dodd will give a talk about his latest book, Hero Unaware: Letters Home from a Navy Corpsman During WWII. The book presents a collection of letters from his father, who served in the Pacific from 1942 to 1945. This is the story of how a farm boy from Montana ended up at Saipan and Iwo Jima, and the effect his wartime service had on the rest of his life.

The book is available at the Homer Public Library. Check it out today!
