Byron Nicholai performs at the summer camp potluck in Dillingham.

Coming up this week, Dillingham’s mayor shares thoughts on the recent foreclosure of more than a dozen properties owned by Jim Binghman. We’ll get reaction from others on what to do with the strip by the harbor the city plans to keep.

As we move towards fall, it’s time to hunt and gather. We’ll tag along with a group of expert salmon berry harvesters, and get an update on the overly healthy herd of caribou on the Nushagak Peninsula.

Plus a visit with recently retired Wood Tikchik Ranger Bill Berkhahn, and teenage Yup'ik singer Byron Nicholai shares a little about himself and his music.

Those stories are coming up after a look back at some of the week’s news.
