= Welcome To My Iditarod Page!!!! =

**I like the Iditarod because I love tracking mushers and learning more about the race! Every year the third grade learns about the Iditarod, I get really excited! I am so happy that Mrs. Anderson started this fantastic club! I think this race is going to be great!!!!!! I also loved learning about the Iditarod last year because we had a fun banquet at the end of the race!**

DeeDee´s Race!


 * DeeDee had a very sucessful race! She got in tenth this year! Last year, she got in seventh last year, but she still had a very, very good race! Nothing bad happened to DeeDee Jonrowe this year which is good unlike last year! I still think DeeDee Jonrowe is the BEST MUSHER EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She won a HUGE award called the Alaska Airlines Leonhard Seppala Humanitarian Award! She also won 23,900 Dollars! That is a lot of money!!!!!!!!!! **
