Join AARP Alaska for Buddy Day! Everything is more fun with a friend, and what’s more fun than saving money?! Courtesy of Alaska State Fair, Golden Wheel Amusements and Coca-Cola Bottling of Alaska, pick-up your Buddy Days coupon starting August 14 – August 24, pick up a Coca-Cola Buddy Day coupon at Three Bears stores located in the Valley, Eagle River, Kenai and Fairbanks/Tok for BOGO admission at the gates, and get your fill of thrills at the carnival (your buddy rides for free with your paid tickets!). Join AARP Alaska’s Mat-Su volunteer team in Pioneer Plaza! Bring a buddy and play Plinko for prizes, learn what local volunteers are doing for older Alaskans and test your knowledge with trivia, from Social Security to Fraud. Head over to the Event Hall for the Embracing AK Disabilities Expo where extraordinary people are turning disabilities into capabilities. Stop by Craig Taylor Farm Exhibits to learn skills from Alaska FFA and 4-H students.
