Mushers and UP200 Board members are offering a volunteer orientation, hands-on dog handler training and a close-up look at aspects of the upcoming sled dog races. Not volunteering? Spectators are welcome! Get a new perspective about what you see at the races and what it takes to make the races happen from both a musher and race organization perspective.

Join us on Sunday, February 1st at 1:00 PM at the Northern Lights Veterinary Clinic, 917 County Road 480 (just west of the Crossroads at M553 and County Road 480).

Interested in one of our more remote volunteer opportunities? Enjoy up close moments with each team as they pass through one of our trail’s many road crossings. Nothing compares to the snow covered stillness of the UP, especially at night.

Volunteers at road crossings make sure the banks stay smooth where sleds exit and re-enter the trails, direct mushers where to go, and track times when mushers pass through to keep all teams safe.
