An anonymous gift from a friend of Skagway

An anonymous donor tasked Skagway resident, Deb Potter, with handing out hundreds of dollars worth of gift cards from local eateries. The donor requested the cards be given to Skagway artists and also made sizeable donations to the Elks Club. Potter thanked the donor publicly at the Dec. 17, 2020 assembly meeting. According to Potter, the donor is a resident of California who has made several cruises to the gold rush town. “She cares about Skagway,” Potter said. “She cares about us.”
