GHC was created on July 19, 2016. The central goal of the organization is to develop and maintain a public space, which will be known as the Government Hill Commons (the "Commons"). Initial plans for the Commons include planting a community orchard and making garden beds available for use by locals. There are additional plans to include art projects and a gathering space. The Commons are intended to be a focal point of the neighborhood, uniting the east and west portions of the community and serving as a gateway to people entering Government Hill. Because of the Pandemic, 2020 was a hold steady year. No public programs, events, etc. Orchard is in good shape. Lots fruit and several successful experiments: Peaches in Alaska!!!! 0 0 2019 was another good year at the Commons. Our orchard is now just about complete - we have almost 100 fruit trees in the ground and the warm summer led to and surprisingly robust harvest from our young trees. We also harvested several gallons of honey from our bee hive. In terms of art, our children's mural was an outstanding success. We also received donations for an espalier which is located in the middle of the orchard. We had several children's events that were coordinated with the neighboring elementary school. All in all, a very good year. 0 0 2021 saw an increase in activity. The Commons hosted two outdoor events. Fruit trees continue to produce and mature. Definitely starting to return to normal after the pandemic. 0 0 In 2022, the Commons went into a holding pattern. Basic maintenance and some "swag" (t-shirts, etc) sales. We also hosted several educational events. Our trees continue to mature. 0 0 2023 was another "maintaining" year. Simple work parties, harvesting, and some "swag" sales. 0 0 0 Stephanie Kesler President 2.00 0 0 0 Steve Gerlek Vice President 8 0 0 0 Nancy B King Secretary 1.00 0 0 0 Caroline Blair Board Member 1 0 0 0 Jody Sola Board Member 4 0 0 0 Eugene McCrae Board Member 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 AK Stephanie Kesler 349 W Harvard Anchorage AK 99501 9072274376 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 9564 500 1500 3350 10400 25314 9564 500 1500 3350 10400 25314 25314 25314 1 1 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Director's and liability insurance, bank charges and fees
