The FSS Outdoor Recreation program has recreational activities, equipment, and services for everyone!
It is located in Bldg. 7301 on 13th St. A large Outdoor Recreation Center offers both winter and summer recreational items for a nominal fee.
You can choose from items such as fishing gear, picnic supplies, cross-country skis, camping accessories, campers, sleds, snow blowers, and ice skates.
Before renting boats and motors, people must take a boating safety course.
An on-line Boat Safety Certification Course is required to rent our boats.
Please visit http://www.boatus.org, click on state of Alaska and print a copy of the certificate and bring it in to Outdoor Recreation.
Canoe training is still provided at Outdoor Recreation Center.
The Outdoor Recreation Program also encompasses several other facilities on base. The recreational vehicle storage lots are maintained by the staff.
