Pancake Breakfast Thank You!
We had a great time last Saturday morning with old and new and younger and older friends over pancakes at the community hall. Special thanks to to Janet Konopa, Kate Stevenson, Michael and Brigitte DeAngelis, Beth Osowiecki, Janette Cadieux, Theo Lexmond, Judy Gilliland, David Lenig, Gary and Yvette Galbraith, JB Weber, Karen Romig, Jamie Gonzales, Sherry Janek, Cathy Leaders, Jillian Konopa, CLHA Inc, Mayme Ohnemus, and Jim Rooney. The pancake breakfast was a fundraising success for CLSCCI thanks to all who helped, came for breakfast, and made special donations.
One of the ways the pancake breakfast funds support Cooper Landing is through Michael and Brigitte DeAngelis who take recycled items from Cooper Landing to Seward using CLSCCI vehicles.
Janet Konopa’s next community service project with CLSCCI backup is heading the fall Sterling Highway cleanup on Wed., Sept. 23 beginning at 10 am. More on that to follow in future Criers.

CLCC Educational Talk Series
Our First talk will be Thursday, September 24, 2026, at 7 pm on “A World of Shipping, Ships and Shipbuilding” by Cooper Landing local resident Al Nerienberg, owner and president of Ship Construction Strategies. Al started as a marine engineer and was an executive at two US shipyards before starting his own company and has worked in shipbuilding and offshore projects worldwide. His talk will cover a very broad range in relation to the sea with some local flavors including the Alaska Packet Fleet of the late 1890s and Alaska’s role in oil/gas shipping.
