Hundreds of square dancers from Alaska, Canada and the Lower 48 come to Delta for the yearly hoe-down. Delta is also planning a series of Mud Bog Races throughout the summer, running June 5 and 19, July 10 and 31, and Aug. 1. The community's premier event of the summer is the annual Deltana Fair, which will run July 31 to Aug. 1 this year. Summer visitors can mingle with locals to enjoy amusement park rides, crafts, a horse show and a rodeo. Tours and Canoe Rentals offers guided scenic and wildlife tours.
Visitors usually see moose and other wildlife.
To take a look at Alaska's richest industry, check out Pump Station No. 9. The line carries crude oil from Prudhoe Bay, located on Alaska's North Slope to Valdez. Alyeska Pipeline Service Co. operates the line and provides the tours. This is the only pump station visitors can tour regularly. Stop by the Delta Junction Visitors Center to make arrangements.
