Anchorage Fur Rendezvous is turning 75 this year!  Wow.  That is a lot of year’s of outdoor fun.

Rondy starts February 26th and runs through March 7th.

This year’s events include the newly popular running of the reindeer and the old familiar snow sculptures and dog races.

From the Fur Rondy Melodrama to the Snowshoe Softball games there is something for everyone.

Rondy pins and other Rondy items for 2010 are available now at the Alaska Mint on 4th Avenue (between D and E Streets).  You don’t want to be caught without your Rondy pin!

The schedule of events is available at Alaska Mint or the Rondy web site www.furrondy.net.

Artique, Ltd. on G Street (between 3rd & 4th) is selling 75th Anniversary Commemorative limited edition prints.  These beautiful prints by Byron Birdsall feature Rondy legend and musher, George Attla.
