Students learn about Alaska’s regions and major topographical features to provide context to their study of the Iditarod and the history and culture surrounding dog-team transit in Alaska. Children learn about dog sledding through direct instruction, discussion, games, and research, culminating in a project where students select the method through which they will show their learning during the unit. Lessons are designed to focus on both the historical context of the Iditarod and the physical and cultural aspects of the trail itself. Students study the 1925 serum run to provide background and context, then research the communities along the modern Iditarod trail. Students will document their experiences in Trail Logs as they explore this aspect of Alaska’s cultural history. Reading, writing, and cultural study are embedded in every lesson in this unit.

  • PRESS KIT [email protected] SYNOPSIS
    Contact: Cinetic Media Linzee Troubh 917-860-0106 PRESS KIT [email protected] SYNOPSIS The Great Alone is a feature length documentary film shot in the arctic wilderness of Alaska that captures the inspiring comeback story of champion sled dog racer, Lance Mackey. From his sunniest days as a boy by his famous father’s side to cancer’s attempt to unseat him, The Great Alone pulls viewers along every mile of Lance’s emotional journey to become one of the greatest sled dog racers of all time. LOG LINE The Great Alone is a feature length documentary film that captures the inspiring comeback story of champion sled dog racer, Lance Mackey. Director’s Statement It was approximately 3am on day 4 of the 2013 Iditarod, while I was waiting for Lance Mackey to arrive at the Takotna checkpoint, that I was finally able to articulate why I set out to make The Great Alone. The Takotna checkpoint is situated in the tiny, remote village of Takotna, Alaska (population 52) and is known for the homemade pies that the villagers serve the Iditarod mushers, volunteers and visitors. Before we set out on our filmmaking journey we were told, “Make sure you film Lance in Takotna, the pie is amazing.” It was great advice.... I guess Lance Mackey is a lot like a piece of pie. Once you get a taste of his story and personality, you want to share it with others. And like a homemade pie, the tin is often dinged up, and the crust might not look perfect, but inside is a delicious recipe refined by time, wisdom and soul.

  • Iditarod Trail Committee Board of Directors Meeting – Summary October 6, 2006 Millennium Hotel Anchorage, Alaska
    Iditarod Trail Committee Board of Directors Meeting – Summary October 6, 2006 Millennium Hotel Anchorage, Alaska A quorum of the Board of Directors was present for the meeting, which began at 9:10AM. The President stated Joe Redington, Sr absence was excused, as he was on the trail. Several staff members were present, as well as Dale Meyers, an ITC member/volunteer. The minutes of the June 2 and June 24 Board meetings were approved as presented. Executive Director Hooley provided the Board with an update on various ITC activities: including current financial projections; efforts with major sponsors; the status of the University of Alaska College Savings Plan funding for the Junior Iditarod (see below); the primarily results of an economic impact study prepared for the City of Wasilla (see below); and the problem and potential solutions for tour buses getting back on the Knik Road due to the major vehicle traffic in this area. The funding from the University of Alaska College Savings Plan sponsorship went away after last years race for the Junior Iditarod. The Board requested the Junior Iditarod to submit an operating budget for the ITC Board to consider. A preliminary economic impact study prepared for the City of Wasilla indicated the impact for the re-start day was $2.8 Million. It was noted this impact realized an increase of $40,000 in taxes that day. Staff will attempt to convince the City of Wasilla to invest in the Iditarod an amount equal to the extent of their financial increase. It was announced that the ITC raffle that concluded at the State Fair was sold out.

  • Iditarod Trail Committee Board of Directors Meeting – Summary April 27, 2007 Millennium Hotel Anchorage, Alaska
    Iditarod Trail Committee Board of Directors Meeting – Summary April 27, 2007 Millennium Hotel Anchorage, Alaska A quorum of the Board of Directors was present for the meeting, which began at 9:05AM. The President stated Joe Redington, Sr absence was excused, as he was on the trail. Several staff members were present, as well as Milo Carter, Shane Goosen, Helen Hegener, Dale Meyers, Mary Pemberton, Donna Quante, Eric Rogers, Mitch Seavey, Scott Sloan, Bud Smyth, Cim Smyth, Ramey Smyth, Perry Solmonson, Bob Stewart and Vera Stratten. Public Comments Shane Goosen, a musher from the Knik area, indicated he had been disqualified from the North American (Sled Dog Race) for reasons having nothing to do with dog care. He was concerned that his disqualification was mentioned in a newspaper article that included comments on the disqualification of Ramy Brooks for animal abuse. Since the newspaper did not state the reason for his disqualification, it was the opinion of Mr. Goosen the readers would assume his disqualification was for animal abuse also. In his opinion, the Iditarod could have handled the alleged animal abuse by Ramy Brooks more thoroughly. Bud Smyth, a musher from the Big Lake area, expressed the opinion that rules are in place, but they need to be enforced. He asked the ITC to get to the bottom of the Ramy Brooks incident and suggest leniency for Brooks. Cim Smyth, a musher from the Big Lake area, suggested it would not be fair to use Ramy Brooks as a scapegoat on this issue. Vera Stratten, grandmother of Ramy Brooks, spoke on the devastation this incident has caused the Brooks family and she was confident the ITC Board would fairly deal with him.
