The Tivoli Free Library is excited to welcome Karen Land, an
experienced musher who has participated in the Alaskan Iditarod sled
dog race! Karen is a writer, public speaker, and wilderness advocate,
giving Iditarod dog mushing presentations at schools and libraries
across the country. To date, she has delivered over 1000 talks in 26
states. In the sport of mushing, a sled dog team is often referred to
as "a string of dogs." Her current string is made up of Alaskan
Huskies, Romano and Noggin; one Corgi-Springer mix named Chloe; and a
15-year old German Jagd Terrier who answers (sometimes) to the name of
Jigs. Join us for a talk with Karen and learn all about her racing
experiences. Meet her sled dog, Noggin. We'll also see Karen's actual
sled and gear. Question and answer session after the talk.
