2016 Yukon Quest Mushers Say Hello to 3rd Grade Class

Description

Each year, students from Ms. Roth's 3rd grade class at University Park Elementary School in Fairbanks, Alaska, write notes on a large poster that is posted in Slaven's Roadhouse in Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve. Slaven's Roadhouse is an optional dog drop for Yukon Quest mushers. During the Yukon Quest, while staying at Slaven's, we ask the mushers to sign the poster that the students left messages on. This year, we also recorded several mushers sending messages back to the class, and after the race concluded, showed this video to the class. The class was overjoyed to see mushers they followed in the 2016 Yukon Quest at Slaven's Roadhouse, and even more excited to see some leaving video messages for the students.
