Nenana Ice Classic

March 3, 2007 - March 4, 2007
8 am-5 pm
Civic Center in Nenana
This kicks off the beginning of Nenana's unique game of chance, based on the break up of the Tanana River. Purchase a chance at the jackpot by guessing the time and date of when the ice breaks up enough to move the tripod on the ice.
It's a great family event with entertainment and contests, plus a chance to get out of town.
I noted before that it's a great chance to take a train ride. Check the schedule for the Alaska Railroad; drop off a car in Nenana the night before (there's no roundtrip back from Nenana); hop on the train and have breakfast while looking for moose. The kids love it.
