Join Nanook Traditions for 2018 Winter Carnival from Feb. 22-24! Winter Carnival is a UAF tradition that spans three days in February. It started as a Fairbanks event, and was centered on the "Polar Bear" hockey team. Since then, the carnival has turned into a time for students to get out and be involved with outdoor sports. Common events include hockey, skating, sledding and dog mushing!
