Volunteers Still Needed

The 2005 Meeting of the American Fisheries Society will be dedicated to the memory of Dr. Molly Ahlgren who died suddenly in late November 2004. Molly was a member of the AFS 2005 Planning Committee and was coordinating student programs for the meeting. She was also an active AFS Alaska Chapter member and a vibrant member of the community of Sitka and a Professor at Sheldon Jackson College. She will be greatly
missed. Molly Ahlgren Memorial
