Major kudos to Larry Jackson and the students of Kayhi for not
only producing wonderful and LOCAL red and yellow cedar benches
for the First City, but their ingenuity and drive. Thanks to
the City of Ketchikan and the Downtown Steering Committee for
encouraging local use and creation of high-value added wood products.
I hope you all get to produce garbage and recycling containers
as well.
And bah humbug to City Councilman Dick Coose! Who knew he was
such an extreme environmentalist that's against value-added use
of our local cedar?
