A most excellent day, many thanks to everyone who volunteered, and also to the Sponsors - First Mate dog foods, Yukon Brewing, Air North, and Dryland Hot Hound Racing, we all rasied over $330 for the Dog Powered Sports Association of Yukon, who need every penny to plough into their Road Runner 100 Whitehorse to Haines Junction race 27-28th February.

Next Yukon Brewing Copper Haul Twister League race - Sunday 24th January at 10am Icy Waters Ltd - 2-6 dogs for the sleds, 2-4 for the skijorers and the trail (even the by-pass section) was very nice on Friday (after our small snowfalls and a good packing) when Jon skijored at and crashed a lot less than he did at the last race - which could still have been quite a lot, but at least the trail is better. The nasty, whippy willows in the new by-pass have been well trashed by the public's snowmachines :)

Remember volunteers always welcome and needed. If interested please call Jon on 667 4138, thanks!

Have a great Festive Season!
