Shareholders, today marks the beginning of another election season!

Your paper proxies are being mailed out today and you can access Election Connection via MySealaska.com to view the proxy online and cast your votes. Our annual election cycle is an important way your voices guide the future of Sealaska by selecting our leadership. We are grateful to all of you who take part.

On this year’s proxy, you will find a great deal of important information, including statements from and details about this year’s candidates for the Sealaska Board of Directors. The proxy also includes details on Sealaska’s corporate financial performance and compensation, instructions on how to vote your proxy, how to vote online or by mail and explanations on the different methods of voting: directed, discretionary or quorum only.

Another important piece of information for shareholders that you’ll find in the proxy is notice of Sealaska’s 52nd Annual Meeting, taking place on Saturday, June 21, 2025, at the Kake Community Hall. We hope to welcome as many shareholders as possible in person, but there will also be an option to attend online. The meeting will commence at 11:00 a.m. AK time, and the agenda will include: election of four directors to serve on the Sealaska Board of Directors for terms ending in 2028, reports on Sealaska’s business operations and activities for the 2024 fiscal year and discussion of any other business that may arise during the meeting.

Vote before the early bird deadline of May 28 to be entered for a chance to win up to $5,000 dollars! Important information on prize rules and shareholder eligibility can be found on your proxy. The early bird prizes this year are as follows:

  • Grand Prize: $5,000 for one winner.
  • 2nd Prize: $2,500 for two winners.
  • 3rd Prize: $1,000 for five winners.
  • 4th Prize: $750 for six winners.
  • 5th Prize: $500 for eleven winners.

Please remember that if you have “Gone Green” and opted to receive electronic communications instead of physical mail from Sealaska, you will not receive a physical proxy in the mail. You can check your “Go Green” status on MySealaska.com, under the “About Me” page.

In just a few short days, shareholders will have the opportunity to attend a virtual candidate forum to hear from this year’s candidates. Please join us on Tuesday, May 6 at 11:30 am AK time via the Mysealaska portal to participate. We hope to see you there!
