Meet Our Sponsors!

THANK YOU seems like a wholey inadequate phrase when it comes to fully conveying the deep appreciation we have for our many sponsors, which include friends, family, local Alaska businesses, contacts from back in Wisconsin, and larger corporations.  We work very hard to cover as many of our own costs as possible.  But if you looked at our Understanding The Costs page, you already know what we're up against financially.  And we refuse to cut corners when it comes to the health and safety of our dog team.  And in order to do that, we must also take good care of ourselves.

Please take a moment to check out our sponsors, visit their websites, and join us in thanking them for helping us reach the finish line!
