The chamber also has been busy mailing out correspondence to potential tourists. Approximately 50 envelopes have been addressed, stuffed and postage applied just in the past couple weeks. This is ongoing all year, but it seems to be really picking up. If you are a chamber member and want to advertise in these packets please get your rack cards or flyers to the chamber office. The chamber has spent $1,000 on a booth in Sullivan Arena in Anchorage for the Sportsman Show this year. Call the chamber if you are interested in working the booth for a few hours or a day. Door prizes also are needed. This event has been very successful in previous years and is a superb opportunity for Anchor Point businesses to represent themselves
