Event Details
Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Your Input Matters!
On May 21, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) released the Draft Feasibility Report for the Homer Harbor Expansion Study, opening a 30-day public comment period.
The report summarizes the engineering, environmental, and economic analysis of four design options to address chronic overcrowding and navigational safety challenges in Homer Harbor. The report recommends a path forward. Both the USACE and the City of Homer concur on the recommendation. Alternative 2 provides moorage for large vessels currently rafted three to five vessels deep and for the number of smaller vessels currently on the moorage waitlist. It is worth noting: the study concludes with a recommendation, not a construction commitment.
https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ provides information on where to access the report online and how to submit comments. Hard copies will be available for review at the Homer Public Library and the Clerk’s Office at Homer City Hall.
Public comment is open through June 22, 2026. All comments are welcome!
Go to https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ to access the Feasibility Report and to make public comment.

Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***

Join us this summer for an exciting and fun-filled experience with Youth Soccer Camp. Whether your child is just starting their soccer journey or has years of experience, our camp offers a dynamic and supportive environment to develop skills, make new friends, and have fun!
2026 Youth Soccer summer program is scheduled for June 2-July 30, with no soccer June 30-July 2.
Homer United Youth Soccer will utilize the player pool concept for the summer program. Each age group will train together within a pool but will have the ability to separate by skill level during training to ensure they are progressing individually. Players will have the opportunity to showcase their skills during the weekly 5v5 Battle of the Bay games. This evaluation process gives Homer Select coaches a chance to evaluate players over a longer period of time.
If a player is chosen for the Homer Select team the parent will receive an invitation to the upcoming tournament. Once invited, tournament fees are due within 7 days to secure a spot on the team roster. If the opportunity is not secured, the invite will go to the next player in line until the roster is full.

THE FROGS BY ARISTOPHANES
A full production, from auditions to the final bow!
“Euripides, the great tragic playwright, has recently died, and Athens has undergone years of political turmoil. Dionysus, the god of parties and of drama, decides that the two phenomena are causally related, and he makes a plan to retrieve Euripides from the Underworld to save the city.” – Randolph College

Event Details
Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Your Input Matters!
On May 21, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) released the Draft Feasibility Report for the Homer Harbor Expansion Study, opening a 30-day public comment period.
The report summarizes the engineering, environmental, and economic analysis of four design options to address chronic overcrowding and navigational safety challenges in Homer Harbor. The report recommends a path forward. Both the USACE and the City of Homer concur on the recommendation. Alternative 2 provides moorage for large vessels currently rafted three to five vessels deep and for the number of smaller vessels currently on the moorage waitlist. It is worth noting: the study concludes with a recommendation, not a construction commitment.
https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ provides information on where to access the report online and how to submit comments. Hard copies will be available for review at the Homer Public Library and the Clerk’s Office at Homer City Hall.
Public comment is open through June 22, 2026. All comments are welcome!
Go to https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ to access the Feasibility Report and to make public comment.

Join the Pratt Museum Garden Crew for guided tours of the Botanical Gardens, Homestead Garden, and Forest Trails.
We will offer an interpretive introduction to the broader ecology of the Kachemak Bay region and describe the ways that we incorporate the plant communities of the region into the Botanical Garden at the Museum. Botany experts and novices alike can find delightful insights as we explore the interactions and dynamics of our local ecosystem.
The Homestead Garden is an ever-evolving exhibit featuring many classic fruits and vegetables and a few specific local varieties that have been treasured by the local community for generations. We will explore some of the basics of plant propagation, discuss the benefits of perennial food crops and talk about food preservation and storage. Snacking is encouraged! Throughout the season, something is always worth sampling from the garden, though the real delight is black currant season in late autumn.
The Forest Trails showcase the ecological context in which the Museum is embedded. These trails wind through one of the larger remaining wild spaces in downtown Homer, and have some of the largest remaining trees in the area. Wildlife is abundant and the plant communities are diverse. There are several loops of varying distance that wind through the nearly 10 acre forest. A meander through these woods with one of our guides will offer an opportunity for wildlife sightings, listening to songbirds, and discussing the ethnobotanical and historical uses of plants that live in our region.

The Olive design by Landly AK is the perfect introduction to hand embroidery. In this class you will learn 6 stitches in a 3-hour period. All supplies needed will be provided but feel to bring any of your own things if you prefer. I recommend you bring glasses that you wear, even occasionally.
If you are hoping to have your dog stitched in a different color than yellow, please message Landly AK what color and I will make sure to bring that thread to class.
You will go home with your piece, 5-inch hoop, size 5 needle and thread needed to complete any leftover work at home. This class is best fit for 12 years and older. If you have a younger kiddo that you know will do well in this class, feel free to reach out to Landly AK and we can discuss making an exception.
Please keep in mind that embroidery is a slower craft and that it is likely you do not finish the piece before class is over.
If you are unable to register online and would like to attend, please message me so I can plan for your attendance. No refunds but if you are unable to attend class after signing up, we can move you to a later class within the year of 2026, as long as you reach out to Landly AK any time before class starts.

Bring a finger food, and wear white and eye protection for our first ever glow in the dark pickleball event. Saturday, January 3rd from 5-8 pm.
Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***

Event Details
Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Event Details
Your Input Matters!
On May 21, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) released the Draft Feasibility Report for the Homer Harbor Expansion Study, opening a 30-day public comment period.
The report summarizes the engineering, environmental, and economic analysis of four design options to address chronic overcrowding and navigational safety challenges in Homer Harbor. The report recommends a path forward. Both the USACE and the City of Homer concur on the recommendation. Alternative 2 provides moorage for large vessels currently rafted three to five vessels deep and for the number of smaller vessels currently on the moorage waitlist. It is worth noting: the study concludes with a recommendation, not a construction commitment.
https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ provides information on where to access the report online and how to submit comments. Hard copies will be available for review at the Homer Public Library and the Clerk’s Office at Homer City Hall.
Public comment is open through June 22, 2026. All comments are welcome!
Go to https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ to access the Feasibility Report and to make public comment.

Join us this summer for an exciting and fun-filled experience with Youth Soccer Camp. Whether your child is just starting their soccer journey or has years of experience, our camp offers a dynamic and supportive environment to develop skills, make new friends, and have fun!
2026 Youth Soccer summer program is scheduled for June 2-July 30, with no soccer June 30-July 2.
Homer United Youth Soccer will utilize the player pool concept for the summer program. Each age group will train together within a pool but will have the ability to separate by skill level during training to ensure they are progressing individually. Players will have the opportunity to showcase their skills during the weekly 5v5 Battle of the Bay games. This evaluation process gives Homer Select coaches a chance to evaluate players over a longer period of time.
If a player is chosen for the Homer Select team the parent will receive an invitation to the upcoming tournament. Once invited, tournament fees are due within 7 days to secure a spot on the team roster. If the opportunity is not secured, the invite will go to the next player in line until the roster is full.

Event Details
Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Event Details
Your Input Matters!
On May 21, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) released the Draft Feasibility Report for the Homer Harbor Expansion Study, opening a 30-day public comment period.
The report summarizes the engineering, environmental, and economic analysis of four design options to address chronic overcrowding and navigational safety challenges in Homer Harbor. The report recommends a path forward. Both the USACE and the City of Homer concur on the recommendation. Alternative 2 provides moorage for large vessels currently rafted three to five vessels deep and for the number of smaller vessels currently on the moorage waitlist. It is worth noting: the study concludes with a recommendation, not a construction commitment.
https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ provides information on where to access the report online and how to submit comments. Hard copies will be available for review at the Homer Public Library and the Clerk’s Office at Homer City Hall.
Public comment is open through June 22, 2026. All comments are welcome!
Go to https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ to access the Feasibility Report and to make public comment.

Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***

Event Details
Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Event Details
Your Input Matters!
On May 21, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) released the Draft Feasibility Report for the Homer Harbor Expansion Study, opening a 30-day public comment period.
The report summarizes the engineering, environmental, and economic analysis of four design options to address chronic overcrowding and navigational safety challenges in Homer Harbor. The report recommends a path forward. Both the USACE and the City of Homer concur on the recommendation. Alternative 2 provides moorage for large vessels currently rafted three to five vessels deep and for the number of smaller vessels currently on the moorage waitlist. It is worth noting: the study concludes with a recommendation, not a construction commitment.
https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ provides information on where to access the report online and how to submit comments. Hard copies will be available for review at the Homer Public Library and the Clerk’s Office at Homer City Hall.
Public comment is open through June 22, 2026. All comments are welcome!
Go to https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ to access the Feasibility Report and to make public comment.

Join us this summer for an exciting and fun-filled experience with Youth Soccer Camp. Whether your child is just starting their soccer journey or has years of experience, our camp offers a dynamic and supportive environment to develop skills, make new friends, and have fun!
2026 Youth Soccer summer program is scheduled for June 2-July 30, with no soccer June 30-July 2.
Homer United Youth Soccer will utilize the player pool concept for the summer program. Each age group will train together within a pool but will have the ability to separate by skill level during training to ensure they are progressing individually. Players will have the opportunity to showcase their skills during the weekly 5v5 Battle of the Bay games. This evaluation process gives Homer Select coaches a chance to evaluate players over a longer period of time.
If a player is chosen for the Homer Select team the parent will receive an invitation to the upcoming tournament. Once invited, tournament fees are due within 7 days to secure a spot on the team roster. If the opportunity is not secured, the invite will go to the next player in line until the roster is full.

Held at 7:00 p.m. at the Porcupine Theater.
The Glacier Quartet will perform three very personal works from the Romantic period. Beethoven’s 11th quartet Op.95, the “Serioso,” written as an experiment just prior to his most mature compositions. Hugo Wolf, a Viennese composer known for his art songs, wrote “Italian Serenade,” his only quartet and most famous string work. Bedrich Smetana’s “From My Life” is a biographical work by the father of Czech musical nationalism. Both Beethoven and Smetana were deaf when they composed their works, and Wolf was on the cusp of being consigned to a mental institution.

Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Event Details
Your Input Matters!
On May 21, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) released the Draft Feasibility Report for the Homer Harbor Expansion Study, opening a 30-day public comment period.
The report summarizes the engineering, environmental, and economic analysis of four design options to address chronic overcrowding and navigational safety challenges in Homer Harbor. The report recommends a path forward. Both the USACE and the City of Homer concur on the recommendation. Alternative 2 provides moorage for large vessels currently rafted three to five vessels deep and for the number of smaller vessels currently on the moorage waitlist. It is worth noting: the study concludes with a recommendation, not a construction commitment.
https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ provides information on where to access the report online and how to submit comments. Hard copies will be available for review at the Homer Public Library and the Clerk’s Office at Homer City Hall.
Public comment is open through June 22, 2026. All comments are welcome!
Go to https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ to access the Feasibility Report and to make public comment.

Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***

FREE // May 30 – August 30 // Thursdays and Saturdays , 11am – Noon
Join the Pratt Museum Garden Crew for guided tours of the Botanical Gardens, Homestead Garden, and Forest Trails.
We will offer an interpretive introduction to the broader ecology of the Kachemak Bay region and describe the ways that we incorporate the plant communities of the region into the Botanical Garden at the Museum. Botany experts and novices alike can find delightful insights as we explore the interactions and dynamics of our local ecosystem.
The Homestead Garden is an ever-evolving exhibit featuring many classic fruits and vegetables and a few specific local varieties that have been treasured by the local community for generations. We will explore some of the basics of plant propagation, discuss the benefits of perennial food crops and talk about food preservation and storage. Snacking is encouraged! Throughout the season, something is always worth sampling from the garden, though the real delight is black currant season in late autumn.
The Forest Trails showcase the ecological context in which the Museum is embedded. These trails wind through one of the larger remaining wild spaces in downtown Homer, and have some of the largest remaining trees in the area. Wildlife is abundant and the plant communities are diverse. There are several loops of varying distance that wind through the nearly 10 acre forest. A meander through these woods with one of our guides will offer an opportunity for wildlife sightings, listening to songbirds, and discussing the ethnobotanical and historical uses of plants that live in our region.

Event Details
Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Your Input Matters!
On May 21, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) released the Draft Feasibility Report for the Homer Harbor Expansion Study, opening a 30-day public comment period.
The report summarizes the engineering, environmental, and economic analysis of four design options to address chronic overcrowding and navigational safety challenges in Homer Harbor. The report recommends a path forward. Both the USACE and the City of Homer concur on the recommendation. Alternative 2 provides moorage for large vessels currently rafted three to five vessels deep and for the number of smaller vessels currently on the moorage waitlist. It is worth noting: the study concludes with a recommendation, not a construction commitment.
https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ provides information on where to access the report online and how to submit comments. Hard copies will be available for review at the Homer Public Library and the Clerk’s Office at Homer City Hall.
Public comment is open through June 22, 2026. All comments are welcome!
Go to https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ to access the Feasibility Report and to make public comment.

Join us this summer for an exciting and fun-filled experience with Youth Soccer Camp. Whether your child is just starting their soccer journey or has years of experience, our camp offers a dynamic and supportive environment to develop skills, make new friends, and have fun!
2026 Youth Soccer summer program is scheduled for June 2-July 30, with no soccer June 30-July 2.
Homer United Youth Soccer will utilize the player pool concept for the summer program. Each age group will train together within a pool but will have the ability to separate by skill level during training to ensure they are progressing individually. Players will have the opportunity to showcase their skills during the weekly 5v5 Battle of the Bay games. This evaluation process gives Homer Select coaches a chance to evaluate players over a longer period of time.
If a player is chosen for the Homer Select team the parent will receive an invitation to the upcoming tournament. Once invited, tournament fees are due within 7 days to secure a spot on the team roster. If the opportunity is not secured, the invite will go to the next player in line until the roster is full.

Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***
Classes are available for adults and teens (12+) on Tues/Thurs/Fri from 9:30-11:30 a.m, Sundays from 9:30 am-Noon, and Tues from 6:45-8:45 pm.

Event Details
Homer, Alaska – Bunnell Arts by Air presents Joe Goodkin performing The Blues of Achilles at Bunnell Street Arts Center on Friday, June 19th, 2026 at 7pm. The concert is broadcast live on KBBI AM 890 with in-person tickets available at Bunnell. In-person audience must be seated by 6:45pm.
The Blues of Achilles is a set of 17 original songs for guitar and vocals. It tells the story of the Iliad through the eyes of the characters: Achilles, Patroklus, Briseis, Helen, Priam, and more. The performance evokes the original oral tradition of epic bards that stretches back millennia and frames the poem in an accessible way (both musically and narratively) for modern audiences. Whether you’re deeply immersed in Greek epic or just curious to see and hear a new take on an ancient story, this event is for you.
Biography: Joe Goodkin is a Chicago-based singer/songwriter with a BA in Classics from UW-Madison. He has performed his original song retellings of Homer’s Odyssey and Iliad (The Blues of Achilles) over 500 times in all 50 US States, Canada, Greece, Italy, England, Scotland, Ireland, and The Netherlands. He has released 15 albums of original music, including 2023’s Consolations and Desolations (produced by founding Wilco drummer Ken Coomer) and 2026’s Winedark Life.
Supported by an Ancient Worlds, Modern Communities grant from the Society for Classical Studies.

Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Your Input Matters!
On May 21, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) released the Draft Feasibility Report for the Homer Harbor Expansion Study, opening a 30-day public comment period.
The report summarizes the engineering, environmental, and economic analysis of four design options to address chronic overcrowding and navigational safety challenges in Homer Harbor. The report recommends a path forward. Both the USACE and the City of Homer concur on the recommendation. Alternative 2 provides moorage for large vessels currently rafted three to five vessels deep and for the number of smaller vessels currently on the moorage waitlist. It is worth noting: the study concludes with a recommendation, not a construction commitment.
https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ provides information on where to access the report online and how to submit comments. Hard copies will be available for review at the Homer Public Library and the Clerk’s Office at Homer City Hall.
Public comment is open through June 22, 2026. All comments are welcome!
Go to https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ to access the Feasibility Report and to make public comment.

Join the Pratt Museum Garden Crew for guided tours of the Botanical Gardens, Homestead Garden, and Forest Trails.
We will offer an interpretive introduction to the broader ecology of the Kachemak Bay region and describe the ways that we incorporate the plant communities of the region into the Botanical Garden at the Museum. Botany experts and novices alike can find delightful insights as we explore the interactions and dynamics of our local ecosystem.
The Homestead Garden is an ever-evolving exhibit featuring many classic fruits and vegetables and a few specific local varieties that have been treasured by the local community for generations. We will explore some of the basics of plant propagation, discuss the benefits of perennial food crops and talk about food preservation and storage. Snacking is encouraged! Throughout the season, something is always worth sampling from the garden, though the real delight is black currant season in late autumn.
The Forest Trails showcase the ecological context in which the Museum is embedded. These trails wind through one of the larger remaining wild spaces in downtown Homer, and have some of the largest remaining trees in the area. Wildlife is abundant and the plant communities are diverse. There are several loops of varying distance that wind through the nearly 10 acre forest. A meander through these woods with one of our guides will offer an opportunity for wildlife sightings, listening to songbirds, and discussing the ethnobotanical and historical uses of plants that live in our region.

Bring a finger food, and wear white and eye protection for our first ever glow in the dark pickleball event. Saturday, January 3rd from 5-8 pm.
Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***
Classes are available for adults and teens (12+) on Tues/Thurs/Fri from 9:30-11:30 am, Sundays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m, & Tues from 6:45-8:45 pm and Saturdays from 5-8 pm. $4 for Youth, $6 for adults.

Event Details
Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Event Details
Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Event Details
Your Input Matters!
On May 21, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) released the Draft Feasibility Report for the Homer Harbor Expansion Study, opening a 30-day public comment period.
The report summarizes the engineering, environmental, and economic analysis of four design options to address chronic overcrowding and navigational safety challenges in Homer Harbor. The report recommends a path forward. Both the USACE and the City of Homer concur on the recommendation. Alternative 2 provides moorage for large vessels currently rafted three to five vessels deep and for the number of smaller vessels currently on the moorage waitlist. It is worth noting: the study concludes with a recommendation, not a construction commitment.
https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ provides information on where to access the report online and how to submit comments. Hard copies will be available for review at the Homer Public Library and the Clerk’s Office at Homer City Hall.
Public comment is open through June 22, 2026. All comments are welcome!
Go to https://homerharborexpansion.com/alternatives/ to access the Feasibility Report and to make public comment.

Join us this summer for an exciting and fun-filled experience with Youth Soccer Camp. Whether your child is just starting their soccer journey or has years of experience, our camp offers a dynamic and supportive environment to develop skills, make new friends, and have fun!
2026 Youth Soccer summer program is scheduled for June 2-July 30, with no soccer June 30-July 2.
Homer United Youth Soccer will utilize the player pool concept for the summer program. Each age group will train together within a pool but will have the ability to separate by skill level during training to ensure they are progressing individually. Players will have the opportunity to showcase their skills during the weekly 5v5 Battle of the Bay games. This evaluation process gives Homer Select coaches a chance to evaluate players over a longer period of time.
If a player is chosen for the Homer Select team the parent will receive an invitation to the upcoming tournament. Once invited, tournament fees are due within 7 days to secure a spot on the team roster. If the opportunity is not secured, the invite will go to the next player in line until the roster is full.

Event Details
Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***
Classes are available for adults and teens (12+) on Tues/Thurs/Fri from 9:30-11:30 a.m, Sundays from 9:30 am-Noon, and Tues from 6:45-8:45 pm.

Event Details
Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Join us this summer for an exciting and fun-filled experience with Youth Soccer Camp. Whether your child is just starting their soccer journey or has years of experience, our camp offers a dynamic and supportive environment to develop skills, make new friends, and have fun!
2026 Youth Soccer summer program is scheduled for June 2-July 30, with no soccer June 30-July 2.
Homer United Youth Soccer will utilize the player pool concept for the summer program. Each age group will train together within a pool but will have the ability to separate by skill level during training to ensure they are progressing individually. Players will have the opportunity to showcase their skills during the weekly 5v5 Battle of the Bay games. This evaluation process gives Homer Select coaches a chance to evaluate players over a longer period of time.
If a player is chosen for the Homer Select team the parent will receive an invitation to the upcoming tournament. Once invited, tournament fees are due within 7 days to secure a spot on the team roster. If the opportunity is not secured, the invite will go to the next player in line until the roster is full.

Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***

FREE // May 30 – August 30 // Thursdays and Saturdays , 11am – Noon
Join the Pratt Museum Garden Crew for guided tours of the Botanical Gardens, Homestead Garden, and Forest Trails.
We will offer an interpretive introduction to the broader ecology of the Kachemak Bay region and describe the ways that we incorporate the plant communities of the region into the Botanical Garden at the Museum. Botany experts and novices alike can find delightful insights as we explore the interactions and dynamics of our local ecosystem.
The Homestead Garden is an ever-evolving exhibit featuring many classic fruits and vegetables and a few specific local varieties that have been treasured by the local community for generations. We will explore some of the basics of plant propagation, discuss the benefits of perennial food crops and talk about food preservation and storage. Snacking is encouraged! Throughout the season, something is always worth sampling from the garden, though the real delight is black currant season in late autumn.
The Forest Trails showcase the ecological context in which the Museum is embedded. These trails wind through one of the larger remaining wild spaces in downtown Homer, and have some of the largest remaining trees in the area. Wildlife is abundant and the plant communities are diverse. There are several loops of varying distance that wind through the nearly 10 acre forest. A meander through these woods with one of our guides will offer an opportunity for wildlife sightings, listening to songbirds, and discussing the ethnobotanical and historical uses of plants that live in our region.

Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Join us this summer for an exciting and fun-filled experience with Youth Soccer Camp. Whether your child is just starting their soccer journey or has years of experience, our camp offers a dynamic and supportive environment to develop skills, make new friends, and have fun!
2026 Youth Soccer summer program is scheduled for June 2-July 30, with no soccer June 30-July 2.
Homer United Youth Soccer will utilize the player pool concept for the summer program. Each age group will train together within a pool but will have the ability to separate by skill level during training to ensure they are progressing individually. Players will have the opportunity to showcase their skills during the weekly 5v5 Battle of the Bay games. This evaluation process gives Homer Select coaches a chance to evaluate players over a longer period of time.
If a player is chosen for the Homer Select team the parent will receive an invitation to the upcoming tournament. Once invited, tournament fees are due within 7 days to secure a spot on the team roster. If the opportunity is not secured, the invite will go to the next player in line until the roster is full.

Sandhill Crane “fuzzball” season begins when the first eggs hatch, starting late May and into June, as the later nesting pairs’ eggs hatch. The new colts are at their cutest for their first two weeks. Colts grow rapidly, so check in frequently. Within 60 to 70 days, they will be as tall as their parents and flying. Please keep your dogs on leash and cats inside during this early and vulnerable time for crane colts and other baby wildlife.
Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

FREE // May 30 – August 30 // Thursdays and Saturdays , 11am – Noon
Join the Pratt Museum Garden Crew for guided tours of the Botanical Gardens, Homestead Garden, and Forest Trails.
We will offer an interpretive introduction to the broader ecology of the Kachemak Bay region and describe the ways that we incorporate the plant communities of the region into the Botanical Garden at the Museum. Botany experts and novices alike can find delightful insights as we explore the interactions and dynamics of our local ecosystem.
The Homestead Garden is an ever-evolving exhibit featuring many classic fruits and vegetables and a few specific local varieties that have been treasured by the local community for generations. We will explore some of the basics of plant propagation, discuss the benefits of perennial food crops and talk about food preservation and storage. Snacking is encouraged! Throughout the season, something is always worth sampling from the garden, though the real delight is black currant season in late autumn.
The Forest Trails showcase the ecological context in which the Museum is embedded. These trails wind through one of the larger remaining wild spaces in downtown Homer, and have some of the largest remaining trees in the area. Wildlife is abundant and the plant communities are diverse. There are several loops of varying distance that wind through the nearly 10 acre forest. A meander through these woods with one of our guides will offer an opportunity for wildlife sightings, listening to songbirds, and discussing the ethnobotanical and historical uses of plants that live in our region.

Bring a finger food, and wear white and eye protection for our first ever glow in the dark pickleball event. Saturday, January 3rd from 5-8 pm.
Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***
Classes are available for adults and teens (12+) on Tues/Thurs/Fri from 9:30-11:30 am, Sundays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m, & Tues from 6:45-8:45 pm and Saturdays from 5-8 pm. $4 for Youth, $6 for adults.

Kachemak Crane Watch wants information about your nesting pair and their newly hatched colts. This important data helps us count the total number of colts in the area and track nesting success. We cannot do this without your observations.
Email reports to Kachemak Crane Watch at reports@cranewatch.org or call 907-235-6262. Include date of hatching, time, location, number of colts, mortalities, and your contact information so we can call for details. For more information contact: Nina Faust at 907-235-6262.

Join us this summer for an exciting and fun-filled experience with Youth Soccer Camp. Whether your child is just starting their soccer journey or has years of experience, our camp offers a dynamic and supportive environment to develop skills, make new friends, and have fun!
2026 Youth Soccer summer program is scheduled for June 2-July 30, with no soccer June 30-July 2.
Homer United Youth Soccer will utilize the player pool concept for the summer program. Each age group will train together within a pool but will have the ability to separate by skill level during training to ensure they are progressing individually. Players will have the opportunity to showcase their skills during the weekly 5v5 Battle of the Bay games. This evaluation process gives Homer Select coaches a chance to evaluate players over a longer period of time.
If a player is chosen for the Homer Select team the parent will receive an invitation to the upcoming tournament. Once invited, tournament fees are due within 7 days to secure a spot on the team roster. If the opportunity is not secured, the invite will go to the next player in line until the roster is full.

Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***

Event Details
Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children’s backyard game. ***ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!***
Play is for adults and teens (12+) on Tues/Thurs/Fri from 9:30-11:30 a.m., Saturdays from 5-8 p.m. and Sundays from 10:00 a.m. to 1 p.m. & Tues/Thurs from 7-9 p.m. $4 for Youth, $6 for adults.
