The University of Alaska Fairbanks School of Natural Resources and Extension is working with the Toghotthele Corp. in Nenana to offer the workshop to corporation members and the public. The site is 307.8 Parks Highway. The end result will be a 16-foot by 20 foot cabin that Toghotthele might auction off to the highest bidder
