Travis Beals and the 4-H CLub
Travis Beals came to my hometown to give a presentation. First, Travis had us back up our car, so he could tie his Dog line to our car bumper. Travis asked if I, Ashley would pass around his headlamp. I tried it on. It was heavy.
I dressed some Dogs. Travis said that he brought some Puppy Dogs to socialize. Travis also said that its good to pet them because they need it.
I helped Travis hook up the Dogs, so we could go for a sled ride. I rode in the sled basket and on the runners. When I came down the hill the first time, I didn’t put on the brake and we went down really, really fast! The second time, I went down the hill I remembered to put on the brake.
Travis came in second in the Junior Iditarod. Some of Travis’s prizes were an ax, scholarship, and a cooler which he is using already.








Ashley, this is a terrific site. I am so glad that you are telling everyone about your dog mushing experiences. I hope you continue because dog mushing is a great experience and a wonderful adventure.
What a great guy
One of my best friends here in Seward.
