Jewish Alaska? (Anchorage, Fairbanks, Bethel: preschool, kindergarten, activities)

[briarroot]

I've been considering a job offer in Bethel, Alaska. Does anyone know if there is a synagogue in the town? or how far to the nearest synagogue?

I have never been to Bethel but I don't think you will find a synogog there. It is one of those towns you have to fly in and out of so going to other towns for brief visits might be impracticle to do often. Here is a web site you might find useful

Thanks for the list. My 2 year old grandson and his parents have just moved to Anchorage. To help them settle in, I am trying to assist their search for activities for a 2 year old which are oriented towards education, day-care, pre-schools, Judaism, music, sports, etc. Thank you in advance for any information you can share with us.
