Dog Mushing

After so many great photos, what else needs to be said??? We had an awesome Summer Reading road trip, visiting public libraries in Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Tennessee. 60 total talks! THANK YOU to all of the enthusiastic and devoted public librarians out there who put together another amazing Summer Reading season. YOU ARE APPRECIATED! And thank you to everyone who came out to learn about the exciting sport of dog mushing and visit with Noggin and me. We love the opportunity to make new friends and learn more about the communities we visit. Noggin can’t wait for the next tour! Email us now to book a talk—we are already scheduling for Winter-Spring 2025 and even 2025 SUMMER READING!

And don’t forget to check out our new dog mushing album, TRAIL ANGELS…

***Noggin highly recommends the song, “Noggin, You’re the One!”

65 TALKS in 6 WEEKS!

Indiana, Ohio, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New York…

It was such a joy to finally get back to the East coast and visit many of the schools and libraries we had to postpone two years ago due to Covid. Patience pays off! We met so many wonderful people. I loved seeing Noggin and Chloe so happy out in the world again. Happy dogs=happy me. It seemed everyone was craving close connections. Thank you to all of the teachers, librarians, and hosts who made our trip possible!

Next year’s EAST COAST tour will happen March/April 2023. Email us at mymusher at gmail.com for more information and to save your place on our schedule.

And, we continue to book SUMMER and FALL presentations. Email us with any questions, thoughts, or ideas. We’re always up for a new adventure!

Noggin, Chloe, and I traveled to five states in 29 days, giving 25 presentations to thousands of students, library patrons, and mushing fans. We met so many wonderful people! Thank you to the schools and libraries for inviting us to your communities and to all of the enthusiastic dog lovers who attended our talks!

We’re home now, doing laundry, cleaning out our truck, and repacking for our Midwestern and East coast adventures. Interested in a SUMMER READING talk? We’re booking now for May, June, and July. For more information, email Karen at mymusher at gmail.com.

What a great time we had on our last Iditarod Public Library and School Talk Tour of 2019 and THE DECADE! Thank you to Grand County Public Library (Moab, Utah), Montrose Regional Library (Montrose, Colorado), Mesa County Libraries (two presentations at the Grand Junction, CO central branch and one at the Fruita branch), Bemis Public Library (Littleton, Colorado), Erie Middle School (Erie, Colorado), Erie Community Library, and Eaton Public Library (Eaton, Colorado).

TO CELEBRATE MY 20th YEAR OF IDITAROD DOG MUSHING TALKS, we’re planning a MEGA ROAD TRIP around the United States for 2020! There’s a good chance we’ll be IN YOUR AREA! For more information, email Karen at mymusher at gmail.com … or… mymusher at yahoo.com.

Photos from our talks at the Eiteljorg Museum’s Exhibit — DOGS: Faithful and True —have been trickling into my INBOX. Here are a few…
