More than 2,300 shareholders — nearly 10 percent of Sealaska’s shareholder base! — participated in Sealaska’s virtual holiday party held on Wednesday, Dec. 14. Shareholders and their families gathered from their homes and phones to celebrate the magic of the season and learn more about the past year’s achievements. The event included door prizes, seasonal greetings from Sealaska’s board of directors and management team and holiday messages from shareholders spreading the joy of the season, as well as a surprise Santa appearance.

“From all of us here at Sealaska, I want to extend our warmest wishes for a bright, beautiful holiday season to all our shareholders and their families,” said Sealaska Board Chair Joe Nelson.

In the spirit of holiday giving, all shareholders were eligible for additional cash door prizes — 100 winners of $200 cash! — regardless of their attendance at the holiday gathering.
