We'll begin our Boot Camp experience by meeting at the Iditarod Headquarters in Wasilla, Alaska.The ITC Headquarters is a historic museum and gift shop.
Make sure you bring your camera because you'll be able to see historic items from sleds to trophies, to news clippings framed and on the wall. Although this building is small, it is jam packed with Iditarod history.
This building also serves as the offices for the race.
Your behind the scenes tour will provide you a glimpse of life---- Iditarod style!
This location will also be the site of the Volunteer Picnic and Iditarod Sign Up event on our final conference day.
Each year, the Volunteer Picnic is held on the last Saturday in June. This picnic celebrates and thanks the volunteers for their hard work. Many volunteers return from the lower 48 for this event which also marks the first day to sign up for the next race. Many mushers who'll be running the race will be at the picnic. You'll be able to take pictures, get autographs, and talk to mushers, volunteers, and staff.
