All gaming permits issued in Alaska are public information and can be viewed at https://online-tax.alaska.gov.Every dollar spent on illegal gaming is a dollar that is taken away from legitimate Alaska organizations. Please help protect the precious dollars that support our local non-profit organizations, cities, villages and councils.We ask you to help get the word out, by sharing this advisory with members of your association, board, chamber, church, club, council, fraternity, society, sorority, friends, and family.
