A Rondy Tradition

The Miners & Trappers are proud to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of furry faces, magnificent mustaches and more by presenting the Platinum Party! Bring your world class beard and extremely tolerant other half to compete in the “Mr. Fur Face Contest,” the Alaska State Championship Beard and Moustache Competition.

As an area Lions Club fundraiser, the Miners and Trappers Ball has raised several million dollars for local charities. Costumes not required, but do make the ball a very memorable experience.

Features music by Nothin' But Trouble and DJ Matt Juba.

Doors open at 5:30pm. Must be 21 and older to attend.
