On June 1, Deantha Skibinski celebrated 10 years as AMA’s Executive Director. She celebrated with our current and past presidents, staff and mentors vital in her success at AMA. Her family was also in attendance and all spoke about Deantha’s decade of being a smiling, fierce leader who excels at bringing people together to stand up for Alaska mining against an ever- evolving set of challenges. Thank you, Deantha! And on July 10, Darlene Strickland celebrated 15 years at AMA. Darlene celebrated with lunch at her favorite Anchorage restaurant and some gifts thanking her for her service. Darlene is an instrumental part of AMA, managing not only membership and bookkeeping duties but keeping all aspects of the office running smoothly. Although all staff are mothers, Darlene is considered the “Office Mom” and the REAL boss. We are thankful for her continued service and dedication to AMA.
