The yellow dashed line is the threshold determining whether to open the commercial fishery. The red line is the threshold for the personal use fishery. The annual shrimp survey began in 1992. The Exxon Valdez Oil Spill occurred in 1989. Figure created by ADF&amp;G.</image:caption>

      <image:title>ARTICLES - New Outdoor Concert Series Brings Out Girdwood's Finest&amp;nbsp; - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>Summer comes alive in the small recreational mountain community of Girdwood with an enchanting outdoor concert series. Locals and visitors gather under open skies as music fills the crisp evening air in the downtown Girdwood Square, echoing through nearby spruce-covered forests. The town square transforms into a lively stage, where bluegrass, folk, rock and acoustic artists perform weekly. Families spread blankets, children dance barefoot, with local food restaurants in abundance. The magical Mount Alyeska backdrop transforms these concerts into more than entertainment—they’re a celebration of community, nature, and the simple joy of music shared beneath the serene alpine setting See the story below.
