About Project Alaska Turf
Our forefathers and ancestors, the Inupiat of yesterday knew a sound mind and a healthy body meant survival in our severe arctic conditions. What you see here today, is not just a football field...it is a field of dreams for our youth and 
children to inspire them to build character. It is a dream that one day will nourish and inspire greatness in our children.

On the Importance of Athletics:
“You would be hard pressed to find many successful businessmen who would not attribute where they are today to their high school athletic experiences. In my case, the lessons I learned playing high school football played a
more crucial role in my career than the lessons I learned in the classroom. “Project Alaska” is a great endeavor. It gives those of us who havebeen fortunate enough to learn through athletics a way to extend those same opportunities to these young men in Barrow, Alaska.”

“In my nearly 40 years of coaching football, for all of the wins and championships, my focus has been as much or more about young men finding the best in themselves, of doing their best on and off the field, and most of all, being solid contributors to the world around them.
They may only play football for a few years, but I truly believe they can and should learn valuable lessons in the sport that they will carry with them for the rest of their lives. If we at Bolles can contribute in some small way to those young men in Barrow, Alaska, having the same meaningful experiences and memories through football, then I think we’ve done a great service.”
