ALCOHOL POLICY
Alcoholic beverages (including mixed drinks, beer, wine, champagne and any other form of alcoholic beverage) may be served under terms and conditions consistent with the laws of the Municipality of Anchorage, City of Fairbanks, City of Seward, State of Alaska and U.S. Government.
1. Event organizers must be familiar with local, state and federal laws, as well as all orders of the police and fire departments, regarding the consumption of alcohol and the distribution thereof, and will be held accountable for implementing and enforcing these laws, regulations, and orders throughout the event.
2. If alcohol will be served at your event, please complete and submit an alcoholic beverages approval request form. Permission to serve alcohol must be obtained and approved in advance. There are no storage facilities for alcohol at any ARRC facilities.
3. A $1,000,000 liquor liability insurance policy is required for events where alcohol will be served. Said policy must cover the entire length of the event and name the ARRC as additionally insured.
4. It is a violation of local, state and federal law to serve alcohol to anyone less than 21 years of age. The Alaska Railroad strongly discourages the service of alcohol if you are planning an event that is likely to be attended by a significant percentage of individuals under age 21. If you plan to serve alcohol at an event that will be attended by guests under the age of 21, please submit a written explanation of the method by which it will determine which guests are over 21, and how you will assure that guests over 21 do not obtain alcohol for guests under 21. For a list of sample precautions see the alcoholic beverage request form.
5. Self-service of alcohol is absolutely prohibited. Only TAM certified bartenders may serve alcohol at event. A copy of the TAM card is required for each bartender. We strongly suggest that you hire a caterer with liquor or beer and wine permit and employees trained in serving alcohol.
6. At least 14 days prior to your event, please provide the ARRC Facilities Marketing Manager with the following:
- Name(s) of the bartender(s) who will be servicing the event.
- A copy of the TAM card for each bartender.
- Copies of all necessary permits, licenses, and liquor liability insurance.
7. The ARRC reserves the right to approve or disapprove the dispensing of alcoholic beverage at any function on its property and may, at its sole discretion, change, modify or amend its alcohol policy whenever it deems so necessary.
