The Chamber Renovates Its Visitor Center For The Upcoming Years

The Greater Copper Valley Chamber operates one of the more important visitor centers in roadside Alaska -- at a key location at the intersection of two of Alaska's major incoming roads, the Glenn and the Richardson Highways.

This winter, the Chamber is completely renovating its building.

Here are some photographs of the work, taken between January 1st, 2014 and January 22nd.

We’re Upgrading The Visitor Center!

 

The Greater Copper Valley Chamber has won a state grant for the Chamber to begin

refurbishing the Visitor Center & do some basic maintenance on the log cabin.

This work includes:    
New signs for the Visitor Center.
New ramp, steps and railings for entrance to the Visitor Center.
Refurbishing the displays inside the Visitor Center.
Creation of more effective displays inside the Visitor Center.
New lighting in the Visitor Center.
Fixing the plumbing in the Visitor Center.

The overall goal of the project is to modernize the visitor center, refurbish the displays and to make it more effective. We also want it to show off all businesses in the Valley and to offer less expensive member contact points.
