What to expect: Introduction to proper equipment, proper harness fit, how to mush safely, and an opportunity to try mushing on our trails!

If you have already taken our clinic and want to practice running your dog, you can attend only the trail portion of the this clinic.

What to bring: Water and snacks, water for your dog, dog leash and collar, comfortable clothes, and your canine buddy! If you want to bike and already have a mountain bike (and helmet), you are welcome to bring it! If you don't, don't worry - you can borrow a bike or scooter.

SAFETY NOTE: Dogs are not allowed off leash anywhere at camp. Mushing events are very exciting to our dogs, so this is very important for the safety of all dogs and people. Additionally, please be mindful of giving other teams space as you walk around camp with your dog!
