KDLG’s 2010 Membership Drive was a success and we thank everyone who helped! If you pledged and have not sent in your payment, please do so at your earliest convenience. If you have already paid but haven’t picked up your premium, please do that before we use your canned salmon for a snack during our next staff meeting! And if you have already pledged, paid and picked up. THANK YOU! We look forward to being your local communication resource for Bristol Bay.
