Soldotna Chamber of Commerce April 4, 2004 Harald I have been to Soldotna 9 times. In July I will come back, again. I will bring my gril-friend with me to show her the state and city i love. I found great friends there...... March 3, 2004 Don & Marty Stover
My Air Force buddy from the early 60's just called
me from Soldotna. We had not communicated since
1967. What a great surprise and how wonderful it
is to know friendships can last so long. We are now excited
about visiting your town, Don (are you looking?)and Carolyn in the
future. Your
photo album has made us even more anxious. Thank you for sharing your
beautiful piece of the U.S. with us.

I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN ALASKA BUT MOVED TO SOLDOTNA WHEN I
WAS A TEEN. I LOVE IT HERE AND DON'T EVER WANT TO LEAVE, IT HAS
BEEN A GREAT PLACE TO RAISE MY FAMILY AND IT IS
SO BEAUTIFUL HERE. THIS IS A GREAT WEB SITE,
THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOICE MY THOUGHTS.
February 13, 2004 Callie Hastings After leaving Soldotna 2000 I was so glad to get out of there. I guess growing up there you think that it is just the one place that you want out of when you get old enough to go out on your own. I have lived all over the US in the last four years, and I have come to realize one thing. No matter what, Soldotna is home, and always will be home. I have been off the coast of Brazil and even with the beautiful horizon, I found myself thinking back on Soldotna. Now I am clear across the country and I find myself getting more and more homesick every day. I really like the site, it brings a little bit of home back to me :) January 19, 2004 Kevin Ahern My wife told me about your web site, I loved the photo gallery. I grew up on the ocean in Boston an avid fisherman. I now live in Michigan and am an avid hunter as well as fishing, my dream is to come to Alaska to do both. Your web site has just reinforced my desire to go. Monday, November 18, 2003 Lucy
Hotchkiss and Family Our family discovered the Kenai Peninsula in 1983, the first year we moved to Alaska. In 1999 we moved to the Soldonta area and have a great life. We would like to say thanks to the Soldotna Chamber of Commerce and the great work they do promoting our side of the world. I have never gone outside Alaska in the summer! Life is too beautiful on the Inlet and Rivers to ever spend summer in any other state. Run Reds run. Lucy Hotchkiss and Family - Kasilof, Alaska Thursday, September 11, 2003

Makes me homesick. Looking forward to our visit last week of August 2001!!! Beautiful! Wish we were there! We have many great memories of Soldotna. We were
visiting The Solid Rock Bible Camp, where the Minnichs' turned their home into ours while
we were there. That was in July/August 1998. But ever since that trip we long to return.
Soldotna has taken our hearts and we're hoping to return soon. Hopefully when the salmon
are running. Everyone there made us fell at home it will be great to return to Soldotna.

Nikiski/Kenai. I graduated in 1979 from KCHS. (Myers) was my maiden name. I have been home
off and on since then, lived in Anchorage, Fairbanks. My husband is in the Air Force and
we have been in Germany now for 7 years. We found this website when my nine year old
daughter chose Alaska as a project for her 4th grade class. This is a year long project
where they study and gather information all about their state of choice. Needless to say
pictures of Alaska was not a problem. These web sites that we have accessed have been
awesome with information. Thanks!! Hi I've been trying to locate a old high school friend from
Fairbanks. Her name was Kay Wold. Her sister worked for the Fairbanks Daily News Miner and
was in wheelchair from polio. I was told that she lived in your town. Can you help me out.
Thank you Don Holter Apple Valley, Mn. My grandpa, Virgil Leroy Binger - "Bing" to his friends,
homesteaded property in Soldotna in the 50's. We lived in Anchorage and would visit him at
the property during the summer and, of course, before Christmas to cut down our tree. I've
lived in the Lower-48 since 1974 and am sooooo homesick! Grandpa died in the early 70's.
If you knew him, I'd love to hear from you. Our family has been trying to move to the Soldotna/Kenai area for
over 3 years now and I was just feeling a little heart-sick today over my unrequited love
for Alaska! I'm returning to Soldotna for a month long visit in July. There is no
place more beautiful than The Kenai Peninsula. Thanks to you and my friend Freddie
Billingslea for the opportunity to spend time in paradise! And please warn Dan France I'm
coming back for another silver! Lived & worked in Soldotna in 1966, Manager of "ALLIED FOODS
INC". i UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS NO LONGER THERE. (that's progress). Joined the ALASKA
STATE TROOPERS that same year "66". Great Web. page. ALASKA is "The Last
Frontier" & the "Great Land".. in fact my mother's name is "ALASKA
FAITH",named on the way to Alaska. I was born in Soldotna in March of 1980, and left Alaska during the
summer of 1991. I hope to move home soon with my fiancé and child. We plan to visit your town for several months this year as volunteer
school grounds hosts for the Kenai Peninsula Borough. This will be our first trip to
Alaska and we can hardly wait until May to leave the heart of Dixie for a cool summer!
Thanks for the info and we will see you soon! I visited your city for the first time in August, 2000. I cannot wait
until I return this spring! We have been there a few times and enjoyed the friendliness of the
people who work and reside in your beautiful city. When we were unable to make the trip
this past year it was a great disappointment. Hope to be there around the middle of June
this year. We always have a good time fishing and sightseeing. Making plans for another fishing trip. Remembered your web place and
again it was a quick easy way to find the information I needed. Thanks! P.S. Why do you
only have some of the businesses linked to web pages?? I found the ones with links
provided far more information Hope to see ya in the summer Great site! Your site has helped me make some important decisions as
to were our gang is going fishing in the year 2000. Every year we try a different part of
the country. Next year, July 30, 2000, 16-24 of us will be there for what looks to be our
best trip yet. Hope the fish co-operate. We are looking for a place to have our dinner
banquet on Friday night of the week. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Best site for
Alaska on the net. Sincerely, Dave Levy I'm from Homer Alaska, and have been to Soldotna/ Kenai often! I like

into your site for a little Alaska boost. Some day in the not too distant future I hope to
retire and call Soldotna home for at least half the year. Found your web page. Your town looks like a place to call home. I was gathering information from your town. I am looking for a new
place to call home. I was told by a person to check your town and I am impressed !!! Hi, I am down here gathering information for the new "Soldotna
Homepage" on Linkup Alaska. You will half to come visit & explore Alaska,
community by community! My wife & I have just spent 6 weeks in Canada & Alaska,
traveling to Skagway by ship from Vancouver, then across-country over then 6 days to
Whitehorse, Denali National Park, & then to Anchorage. 2 days on the Kenai peninsula
with a day's Silver salmon fishing on the Kenai River was superb and productive. A must to
come back - there is so much more to see & do in Alaska. Have already started to haunt
the Kenai Peninsula websites for the next trip. Enjoyed your website. I really do not really know where you are at in
Alaska from American point of view, but a map helps! MY WIFE AND I SPENT A LOT OF TIME FISHING THE KENAI IN SOLDOTNA WHILE
WE WERE STATIONED IN AK. WE LEFT IN 1994 AND WISH WE NEVER LEFT. JUST SURFING AROUND AND
GOT A LITTLE HOMESICK. Just wanted to say that you have a great site and to tell you to keep
up the good work. I leave tomorrow to visit my best friend in Anchorage. We are

something to see. I live in Soldotna, and I thought I would browse the chamber's web
page. This is a great resource! Going to be in your area the 2nd week of July to do some King Salmon
fishing, and found your website very useful in finding some great Fishing Charters. Thanks

today , someday I will move to this great town. I'll be up your way this summer to assist US Fish & Wildlife
& Alaska Fish & Game to count rainbow trout in the Kenai River. Just checking the
internet for info. on the area. Amy Simonds at the Soldotna visitors center is a wonderful person and

better it is very helpful on campgrounds and fishing information Found site very interesting Have friend who lives there and would
like to find out more about Soldotna I'm Studying my home town (Soldotna) for my urban studies class.

factors critical in shaping Soldotna's development 2) Soldotna's population by decade from
the date of its origin 3) any significant events in Soldotna's history. If you could
