One of our favourite post-season tasks is having the privilege to receive, read and reply to the many letters we receive from students who were studying the Iditarod and had picked Aliy as their musher to follow.
There are so many heartfelt messages and drawings and this year they really lifted spirits all round!
A shout-out to all the teachers who use the Iditarod in their lessons and introduce a new generation of fans to our incredible sport. It’s been a tough year for teachers but they keep on keeping-on and we appreciate that.
So, a huge thank you to all the students who took the time to write to Aliy and to all the teachers who encouraged them.
Thanks also to Padee for her help with the letters this year.
Remember, our Husky Homeroom is still available for students and teachers (and anyone else who’d like to learn about our amazing dogs, sport and state).
Sweet! I taught 4th grade and about the Iditarod for most of 39 years, so this is heartening. Continued best wishes to SP Kennel: Aliy, Allen, the pups, and the entire crew!
Those are so adorable! So much great artwork to add to the wonderful heartfelt letters!
So cute and thoughtful ! Love and prayers ❤️🙏🏼🐾

Hi, from Florida.
Brita
I’m glad to see Aliy getting so many cards and pictures. We were really worried about her here in Takotna. Did her Return bags get there yet? I put something in one from McGrath.
Great cards from the kids with hearts! So nice to see them being so creative. Get Well Aliy!
As a retired teacher, I so appreciated your dedication and communication with the children.
Bless you Aliy.
