From PWSC to Alaska's Rivers

Prince William Sound College alumna Jane Churchill is living the dream.

During a recent visit to Cooper Landing, Dr. Benjamin Rush, assistant professor of Outdoor Leadership, caught up with Jane, who is spending the summer working as a raft guide.

Jane earned her associate of applied science in outdoor leadership at PWSC after also completing certificates in natural resources technician and marine natural resources technician. During her time at the college, she also gained hands-on research experience through the Alutiiq Pride Marine Institute, working with ocean chemistry and environmental science.

When the rafting season ends, Jane plans to head to Northern California to work at a ski resort this winter, continuing a career that keeps her outdoors year-round.

We're proud to see PWSC alumni building careers that turn a passion for the outdoors into a way of life. Congratulations, Jane!

Finally feeling like summer again here in Cooper Landing! 🌞
Come enjoy the sunshine on a float down the river!

Happy 4th of July from Alaska Rivers Company!!!

Spring is in the air on the Upper Kenai River! We have scenic float trips available and cabin rentals. You might just get an unexpected visitor.

Ya know what they say! look for the big rainbows in the middle of rain... or something like that...

We had an absolute blast taking the Cooper Landing School rafting down the Kenai Canyon! We had gorgeous weather, got super splashy & hiked out on Hidden Creek trail! 🌲🌊🌞
Shoutout to the Cooper Landing School teachers for planning a great field trip! 😎

This is how you should react when you catch a big ole coho on the fly !!! 🏆
