Title
Serum Run - Iditarod Trail
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- The Serum 25 Run is a long distance dog mushing expedition that commemorates the courageous effort and success of the original Serum Runners, who were responsible for bringing the life saving diphtheria serum to Nome in 1925.The late Col Norman Vaughan, was the Serum Run leader, along with dog mushers and supporting snow machiners. The Serum Run travels the same route taken by the original Serum Runners from Nenana to Nome. In addition, dog mushers and snow machiners used to speak to each village school along the way to remember the original feat accomplished by mostly Alaskan Native Mushers, and to inspire school age children to "Dream Big and Dare to Fail". Villagers are reminded about the importance of getting inoculations as part of continuing present day health care. This mission is now up to Serum Run members and participants.
