GOING for 5!


Hot news and upcoming events:

Kathy spent Mardi Gras in New Orleans last week - combining Alaska family with Louisiana family for an eventful few days.

Martin and Rohn are combining teams.  Martin is driving the SUPER Team!!!!  Rohn and Nikolai will manage the kennel during the race.  We are pretty jazzed about the potential for the team and Dad.  Martin is totally excited to get all the best dogs.

James is making his final choices among his spirited yearling dogs for his Rookie run to Nome this year.  He has worked so hard to transform a screaming bunch of middle schoolers into a working group. 

Kathy and Elliot are gearing up to drive snow machines to Nome heading out early Sunday, March 3 - RESTART Day.  They are part of the "hcir allen memorial expedition to nome."  hcir is how Rich often spelled his name.  Rich really wanted to travel the trail and two years ago we made plans to ride under the guidance of seasoned ANC-OME snow machine driver, Kent Harrington.  Rich unexpectedly passed away in the fall so the trip is in his honor.  The crew is rounded out by Sue Allen, Rich's wife, and Jim Davis and Nancy Marty, great friends.

So hold on everyone for an exciting next few weeks……………….

Thanks for all your support, prayers and good vibes - now's the time to start thinking 5!!!!
