Community events
We are a community that loves to celebrate! Perhaps it’s our cold winters and long summer days, but Fairbanksans, as a rule, make recreation and organized fun a priority. In fact, we will find almost any excuse to hold an organized festival or event. Cold winter day? Let’s have fireworks! Long summer night? What about a baseball game? We live for that kind of stuff…
No matter what your taste we’ve got it all!
