The Klondike Development Organization (KDO) is a part- nership of the City of Dawson, the Dawson City Chamber of Commerce, the Klondike Visi- tors Association, the Dawson City Arts Society and Chief Isaac Incorporated (the de- velopment corporation of the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in).

  • Trace-Approved
    TRACE ADKINS Proud To Be Here In the fifteen years since his platinum debut, Trace Adkins has released ten studio albums, three greatest hits packages, and thirty chart singles. He has also racked up four Grammy nominations and five ACM and CMT awards. Accomplishments like that – along with sales in the tens of millions – explain the respect Adkins has earned from Country fans and the industry alike. But there’s more. In recent years, Trace has made his mark as a TV and film actor, a voiceover artist, an author, a social commentator, a participant on NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice — and even the inspiration for a series of comic books. Along the way, Trace has endured his share of well-publicized tribulations, and the release of his latest album – Proud To Be Here – was marked by the same loss (and luck) that have shadowed Trace all his life. In June of 2011, as the finishing touches were being made to the album, the Nashville-area home Adkins shared with his wife and three of his five daughters was destroyed by fire. True to form, Trace thought first of his family’s safety, steered the outpouring of fan support toward the Red Cross…then got back to work. Adkins’ strength, focus and passion for fully lived life infuse every bit of his new project. Proud To Be Here is the perfect distillation of Trace's art, displaying once again his ability to pour emotional truth into his music, whether it is of the tender or the rowdy variety. The project celebrates committed love in songs like "Million Dollar View," "That's What You Get," and "Always Gonna Be That Way," the joys of the simple life in "Days Like This" and "Poor Folks," the lighter side in "It's A Woman Thang" and "Love Buzz," and life's highest priorities in "It's Who You Know." "There's so much on this record that's autobiographical," says the man with the soul-stirring baritone.
