This was extremely helpful for individuals who needed some help. Several stages were spread out across the fairgrounds for various entertainment. A barbershop quartet performed and hubby judged them to be good. Fair food variety was the name of the game - hubby ate spinach bread, blueberry crisp with whipped cream on top. Several native dance/singing groups also performed. One beautiful dance re-enacted by the group was of the "Eagle". A horse exhibition was performed under a tent - hubby thought he almost was run down. That group was from Florida, a happy coincidence. A puppy show was also seen outdoors in the red section. Rescue dogs were trained to perform various tricks, amusing everyone who saw them. Be prepared to take things slowly at the Fair - it's very crowded and the fairgrounds are large and very spread out.

We came out here with a few friends for something to do on a Saturday in August. I think I hadn't…read morebeen here since I was a kid. Followed car directions and found it no problem. They have a dirt parking lot that was filling up fast. As we headed over I was noticing all the things they have to offer. They had mini golf course with the balls and putts out I think it was open? And free? Not sure. There were a board of rules to follow but I didn't notice it till we were checking out. It was a little confusing on where to start but we just walked in and went straight the the crops. They also had little trikes for kids to ride and a huge inflated strawberry jumping pad that kids were all over. We started from the back of the field at the bokchoy which we got a couple of. You should bring a knife to cut the vegetables. Don't know if they provide cutters if you don't bring your own. They had tons of plants growing. Several feet wide and who knows how long with rows of bokchoy, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, potatoes, and other things. We got bokchoy, one head of broccoli, and 4 pretty big Yukon gold potato's all for $5. We had carrots and other things growing in our garden at home so got minimal vegetables. Our friends got huge bags of carrots potatoes and other things. They paid around $30. Way cheaper than the store and guaranteed Alaskan Grown lol plus it's a great way to spend the day and experience something new. Not sure if this was the end or beginning or middle of the picking season but most crops were picked heavily on the beginning of the rows and you had to walk halfway down to find a plethora of picking options. Except for the carrots they had been picked over pretty well but still lots available. Most of them had several arms and people didn't want them. The potatoes were huge and had been tilled so you just pick them up off the ground, minimal digging required. The soil everywhere was very dry like they hadn't watered ever. Maybe they cut back when everything is pretty much grown. After you are done picking you stand in line to check out. We had to wait a little bit, like 15 minutes to check out because they were a lot of people there. They apologized for the wait time but it wasn't a big deal. They weigh everything then give you a price. I think they had price per pound posted somewhere but nothing was out in the open where you could see it easily. Overall I would definitely come back. We grow a lot of our own things in our backyard but lots of people don't have that option or don't want to. Fun place!

And the MTA center does it even better than some that I have been to. They have nice heaters in the stands and even a pizza corner during games. I've had the pleasure of using the rink for two things, curling and hockey games. Hockey Games - during hockey games, I've sat in the seats, enjoyed the concessions, and watched the game. There are no bad seats and they have warmers above the bleachers. Curling - this has been my chance to actually get down on the ice. The staff at the rink are very friendly and accommodating. They do a great job setting up the ice to curl!

This is a pretty great theater. Saw two plays on back-to-back weekends…read more It didn't feel like there was a bad seat in the house. I sat in both the front area and the back and it was easy to see and hear in both spots. There is only one bathroom so the ladies line gets pretty long at intermission. There are no ushers so finding your seat can be a little confusing, especially the first time. There are snacks for sale and I didn't see any specific signs saying no food or drink...though my understanding of theater etiquette implies no food or drink...so that's interesting and worth a little extra observation the next time.

Staff were welcoming and efficient enough. We were there for a matinee showing and the cost of tix + concession food was noticeably low. I did wish they sold hot dogs.
