I run a social media for a shop in eagle river. Would it be ok for me to share these photos to our social media with credit to you all snd your article and/or do I need permission from someone else?

Either way, glad I came across this. It was a great read!

I don't remember the Fur Rendezvous being called Rondy or Fur Rondy. I only remember hearing about the Fur Rendezvous. Is "Rondy" a new thing? I lived in Anchorage from 1962 to 1974.

Mona - Yes, somewhere along the way, as with many things in American life, someone decided that Fur Rendezvous could be shortened to the less formal, “Rondy”. Personally, I prefer “Fur Rendezvous.”
