KFAR RADIO News & Conversation
A very proud Alaskan Mom called to let us know a local 6-year-old is in the running for #AmericasFavoriteStudent and he needs your vote! He is in the top 20 and voting ends soon.
Vote today for Dax!
He's in the TOP20 for #AmericasFavoriteStudent and he is from Alaska!
Dax LOVES to learn. He enjoys going to school every day, and has always had a fascination with all things science. He and his family have been tracking solar storms and the Aurora for years! This kid wants nothing more than to meet real live scientists! He would love to be the one student who gets to tour the The Planetary Society with Bill Nye The Science Guy, win $20,000, and appear in Reader's Digest!
Let's help this Alaska kid be #1!
Voting for the TOP 15 ends Thursday the 2nd of April at 7PM PDT

Dax is 6 years old and an incredibly curious boy. He loves to learn, track the weather, track solar storms, and is the best reader I know!
KFAR Radio 660AM/97.5 FM would like to extend a huge THANK YOU to the Alaska Dog Mushers Association for the opportunity to once again broadcast the 80th running of the Lotto Alaska 2026 Open North American Championship!
From March 20–22, Fairbanks once again played host to the world’s premier sprint sled dog race, bringing together top teams from around the globe for three days of fast-paced, world-class competition. We’re honored to help bring the excitement, tradition, and stories of this historic event to our listeners. The Open North American Championship is not only the longest continuously run sled dog race in the world, but also a cornerstone of Alaska’s rich mushing heritage.
A special thanks to the mushers, volunteers, sponsors, and fans who make this incredible event possible each year—we’re proud to be part of it.
We already can’t wait for next year! 🐾🎙️
Thank you KFAR for keeping us connected to the race from afar! It’s so appreciated!
Thank you KFAR and Wendy! What a blast it was.
Thank you KFAR! We appreciate the team and all you do!
Hope you guys had fun. You guys are great. You also Perry.
You guys are the best!!! Thanks so much for making the race so accessible for all the friends, family, and fans back home- and for having mini parties/cheering squads out on the trail! Always a little tempted to stop at mile 10 for a shot of fireball 🤣
