MAYOR HEWITT'S RETIREMENT CELEBRATION
JUNE

After 20 years as Anchorage mayor and six years as a city council member, Mayor
Tommy Hewitt officially retired in 2020.
A city celebration of his tenure and retirement was delayed due to the pandemic. Anchorage Civic Club and the City will host an adult cocktail celebration at City Hall from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Sunday, June 13th. Join us in thanking him for keeping this community safe and strong throughout the years and the accomplishments that continue to benefit the City.
CROQUET & ROSÉ
Saturday, June 26, 4-6 p.m. at Wagner Park
It's time to start forming
your teams and coordinating your outfits because Croquet & Rosé is back and better than ever! You will NOT want to miss
this event as the registration will be capped at 20 teams. To register your team, please go to the link: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0d4eafa82caaf58-croquet
There are going to be a few changes to the event this year due to the pandemic restrictions. This year, instead of bringing food to share, we are going to ask each team to set up their own "Tailgate" at Wagner Park. Each team will be allowed to enter one vehicle/tailgate into the competition. We encourage you to be creative with your food, drinks, and decor! Plan to feed only your teammates, and get creative! You are welcome to tie your tailgate and outfit themes together, but this is NOT required. Awards will include the champion and runner-up teams in croquet, best dressed team, and best tailgate.
