Arctic Winter Games
Every two years, Alaska athletes have an opportunity to participate in the Arctic Winter Games.
The Arctic Winter Games (http://www.arcticwintergames.org/) is a circumpolar sport competition for northern and arctic athletes. The Games provide an opportunity to strengthen sport development in the participants’ jurisdictions, to promote the benefits of sport, to build partnerships, and to promote culture and values. The Games celebrate sport, social exchange and cultures. The Games provide an opportunity for the developing athlete to compete in friendly competition while sharing cultural values from northern regions around the world.
