Need a handy guide to important local phone numbers and locations?

Want to avoid having to turn on your computer or use the tiny key-pad on your smartphone to look up the number of, say, the Fair-banks school district or the office of the city mayor?

That’s where our annual Com-munity Guide comes in handy. Keep it by your home phone — if you’re one of those people in that increasingly smaller number who still have a land line — or some-where within easy reach.

Inside you’ll find phone num-bers, addresses and hours of oper-ation of numerous local, state and federal offices and of schools in the Fairbanks North Star Borough School District, among loads of other information. If you’ve got something to say to an elected offi-cial, whether by phone, in person or by email, we’ve also included the information you need to do that.

Lastly, we’ve provided a calendar of some key events happening around the area throughout the rest of 2015.

The 2015 Community Guide can make things a little easier for you. Keep it around.Contact Managing Editor Rod Boyce at 459-7585. Follow him on Twitter: @FDNMeditor.
