Hiking in Denali National Park Big-ship Alaska cruises are looking unlikely this summer but Holland America Line and Princess Cruises are making it possible for travelers to visit on land programs.
These will be available via Gray Line Alaska, Princess Alaska Lodges and Holland America Line’s Westmark Hotels, giving a combination of tours, lodging and sightseeing options. We’re committed to helping locals and visitors alike experience all the best parts of Alaska in a safe way, said Dave McGlothlin, VP tour operations. For the last year, many people stayed close to home so, this summer, as we’re able to reopen some of these land offerings, we are more ready than ever to welcome visitors back through our doors.

Once again the MTU Flex Task Force is looking for volunteers to act as runners during baseline COVID-19 testing as students return to campus from Spring Break. Michigan Tech s Spring Break begins with the end of classes today (March 5). Classes will resume on Monday, March 15.
Brian Cadwell, director and chief of the Department of Public Safety and Police Services, said high volume baseline testing will begin on Friday, March 19 and go through Tuesday, March 23. The testing will take place in the Wood Gym of the Student Development Complex (SDC).
Cadwell said COVID-19 testing requires two people . a swabber and a runner. The swabber applies the nasal swab to obtain a specimen. The runner stands nearby and holds a plastic bag in which the sample is placed. The runner then seals the plastic bag and places it in a cooler, Cadwell said
