suggested that the Chambers of
the cities in the Territory assist in
making this tournament possible
by providing a community dance,
or a community Bingo play, or
some other entertainment in order
to partially finance the trip. The
Fur Rendezvous will provide a
percentage of the expenses for
each team, those percentages to
be announced as soon as air rates
and travel costs can be deter
mined. Provisions have already
been made to provide satisfactory
housing for the contestants while
in Anchorage.
Last year for the first time in
Fur Rendezvous history a Mining
Congress was held in conjunction
with the Rendezvous. Beginning
this year, our planning has in-j
creased to embrace all of Alaska’s J
industry. Accordingly, the Ren
dezvous will feature “Alaska’s An
nual Parade of Industry.” Plans
are being made to survey Alaska’s
industries and to invite the indus
tries to present exhibits that depict
progress future growth and ex-|
pansion. The Industrial Parade is
designed to enable members of
Alaska’s industries to get together
and correlate their planning for
the coming season. It is planned to
have lectures and moving pictures
for the purpose of education of the
public and individuals interested
in Alaska’s growth and Alaska’s
industries.
In view of the mutual interest
of the Fur Rendezvous to ail peo
ple in the Territory, we take this
opportunity to extend an invita
tion to the people of Nome to join
us in Anchorage during this fes
tive period. Because of the fact
that numerous visitors are expect
ed to be in Anchorage during the
Fur Rendezvous, it is suggested
that all visitors be advised to make
reservations in advance.
We look forward to seeing you
at the Rendezvous.
Very truly yours,
Charles E. Chevillon,
Fur Rendezvous Manage:
