Fireworks explode near the Alaska Satellite Facility's new 11-meter antenna on UAF's West Ridge during the annual New Year's Eve Sparktacular event sponsored by local businesses. December is upon us already, with just a few more centennial celebrations before the year's end. Throughout 2017, we've held more than 50 events with hundreds of volunteers and thousands of participants.

As the centennial planning committee chair, I want to thank everyone in #NanookNation for your enthusiasm in celebrating this major milestone for UAF.

I'm looking forward to a relaxing holiday break, and I hope you all are, too. Read on to learn about the remaining events to mark UAF's 100th year, and please join us if you can.
