Transportation

There is a shuttle that is run by the YMCA that you can call.  It is limited to Mon-Fri and some weekends.  The # is 907-384-3733 or if on-base call 99-384-3733.  It sometimes takes a while for him to get you, but last time I was there (May 2012), it was only $1 per person, although he limits to where he will go, he does go off base but not too far away.  He does go to all the restaurants right outside the gate and you can call him to come pick you up there also.
