Yukon Quest Fundraiser
/This Saturday evening, I had the privilege of being a part of the Yukon Quest's annual fundraiser- Bunny Boots and Bids, a beer and wine tasting event. Mushers from both the 1,000-mile and 300-mile races wear tuxedos and serve hors d'oeuvres as guests mingle and check out the beautiful silent auction items. Later on in the evening, it was time for the live auction of priceless items like a custom-painted toilet seat cover, a cheesecake (went for $300), and stays at mushers' kennels. It was a blast to visit with fellow mushers as well as mushing enthusiasts. Thanks so much to all the volunteers that made this event possible! Can't wait for the race itself!
