Thank you to everyone who joined us for SAIL’s 2026 Wildlife Cruise series in Ketchikan, Juneau, and Sitka! We had an incredible time bringing together the community for three unforgettable evenings on the water. This year’s cruises were a tremendous success, with all three events selling out and raising important funds to support SAIL’s mission to inspire personal independence for seniors and people with disabilities throughout Southeast Alaska.

We are deeply grateful to Allen Marine Tours for sponsoring this event series and for their continued support of Southeast Alaska through tourism. Also a special thank you to SEARHC for sponsoring tickets, helping make these events accessible and ensuring individuals across our communities could attend and enjoy the experience alongside friends, family, and supporters.

We loved celebrating with all of you and are already looking forward to next year’s Wildlife Cruises!
