Stop by the Library before the event to pick up a ticket for this bubble event. We are issuing free tickets for 30 minute time slots to spread out the crowd. Tickets will first be available at our Summer Reading Kick-off on June 1st. Event will be held on the Library lawn. This event is sponsored by Renewable Energy Group.
Have you ever wondered…What does it feel like to ride the runners behind a team of dogs, steering a loaded sled through mountainous terrain, crossing the vast Alaskan tundra, hugging the shoreline of the great Bering Sea? What does it take to care for a team of Alaskan huskies? Could my dog be a sled dog, too? Musher, Karen Land, will answer these questions and more with her Alaskan husky, Noggin. Land is a writer, public speaker, and three-time participant in the 1000-mile Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race as well as many other sprint and endurance races in Alaska, Canada, Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, and Maine. Since 2000, Land has traveled to nearly every state with her Iditarod dog sled, mushing gear, Arctic clothing, and beloved dogs, giving over a thousand school and public library presentations. This program is sponsored by the Newton Public Library Foundation. All ages welcome.
