The Great Tanana River Raft Classic - 40th Reunion


Forty years ago last year, this year and the next three years are reunions of the floating armada from Fairbanks to Nenana.

On August 10, we will get together on the Discovery. This site is to organize the event. On the way, we can capture memories of all the sailors, names of the fortunate, and life long impacts of the relationships.
