In our 2024 newsletter we announced that we received a loan from NDN Collective to purchase ‘Koksetna Lodge’. This lodge sits on five acres of land located at the mouth of Chulitna River which drains into Qizhjeh Vena, known today as Lake Clark. We were given a year grace period before monthly payments would start. It is with deep gratitude and excitement that we, the team of Qizhjeh Vena Alaska (QVA), announce that we have paid off the loan to purchase ‘Koksetna Lodge’! We are calling the lodge the Center, for now.
