Stacy Studebaker Interview With Casey Kelly Featured On APRN Weekend Show "AK" Saturday March 10, 2007 at 6:00 p.m.

KMXT’s own Lila Liverwort aka Stacy Studebaker heads Whale Reconstruction Project!

The Story of this project will be featured on “AK” airing Saturday March 10th at 6:00 p.m. on KMXT 100.1 FM

The skeleton of a California gray whale, that was found on Pasagshak Beach in May of 2000, will soon be on display in Kodiak at the new National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center now under construction.

Conservationist Stacy Studebaker, is heading the reconstruction team, that is carefully putting the whale back together. “Gordie,” is the name of the gray whale being restored. The whale is named after Stacys 95-year-old father who also helped in the restoration.

The gray whale skeleton will hang from the second floor of the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center.

Also assisting with the restoration is Lee Post of Homer. Post is the author of a series of books on animal restoration.

From Left to Right: Chris Provost shows his smooth delivery, Fritz Ferrante goes for a strike and Hans Engvall uses body language to change his luck.

Bowling Party turns into a Turkey for one KMXT Volunteer!

Sunday Night Jazz host Nick Barshay showed us all up with a 191 game. Throwing 5 strikes in a row he got a Turkey and a half?

A good time was had by all. Hans Engvall called the most pins to win a variety of prizes. Best bowling shirts, Nick Barshay and Lori Siebe.
