Now & Then: Calista’s Annual Meeting
50 Years Ago to Today
Storyknife, July/August 2024
Did you know? Under current policy, the Calista Corporation Annual Meeting of Shareholders is held at least once every five years in Bethel, and at least once every seven years in Anchorage.
Annual Meetings are otherwise held in the Calista Region. Their locations are selected by the Board of Directors, then typically announced in January or February. Due to the expense of travel for our Shareholders, the Board aims to go to them—by holding an in-person Annual Meeting in each village. So far, meetings have been held in 34 villages.
Fifty years ago, Calista held its first Annual Meeting of Shareholders in Bethel. This year Calista’s Annual Meeting was held at the Dena’ina Center in Anchorage. Here is a view of our annual meeting from 2024 and 1974.
