Ididarun Sled Dog Race to Benefit the Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe
Dogs of all breeds and sizes compete against the clock, pulling sleds over a snow-covered course across four weight divisions; 0-25 pounds, 26-50 pounds, 51-75 pounds, and “heavy weight” at 75 pounds and over. Prizes are awarded to the fastest competitor in each division with a trophy for the overall winner.
Inspired by the world-famous Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race that takes place every year in March from Anchorage to Nome, Alaska. This year Tahoe Donner Cross Country Center will hold its own “Ididarun” race to benefit the Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe. Downsized in scale and distance, but supersized in fun, this exciting sled dog race against the clock will include four weight categories for sporting pups to pull a sled weighing 50% of their body weight across a snow-covered course. Each division will have a winner, with an overall racing champion. Raffle tickets will also be on sale for additional chances to win fun prizes.
