Check out “AHS Live,” an amazing collection of digital and video work by students at Anacortes High School. Students under the leadership of teacher Jim Thompson produce a weekly news broadcast at AHS, plus special features and LIVE broadcasts of many athletic events. This photo was taken at a boys basketball game. In addition to the two courtside announcers the student broadcast team included several videographers and digital photographers. If you miss the events live, they are archived on the AHS Live website: https://www.youtube.com/user/ahslive/videos
A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
