Mushers Rendezvous
The start of the 2002 races.

A world-class event

Come out and celebrate the 12th Annual Preeceville & District Mushers' Rendezvous!

The annual Mushers' Rendezvous in Preeceville will be held on February 4, 5, and 7, 2010, all starting at the Preeceville and District Skating Arena. It is a world-class event featuring six and 10 sled dog races.

The fun weekend will include a lot more for the whole family: a talent show, fireworks, suppers, dances, and even some new and exciting events for children. It will truly be a memorable event to attend!

The Mushers' weekend could not be a huge of a success without the help of the countless volunteers that give up their time year after year to help out.  And we Thank you!  If you want to help the organizing committee make this a truly fun event, why don't you come out and volunteer.  Please contact Kevin or Rhonda Cook or Dana Tureski with the Town of Preeceville, if you are interested. 

Sponsor letters have been sent out, and the prize patrol have started canvassing for the prize table at the dance, so if you are interested in sponsoring this event or donating a prize, you may also contact Kevin or Rhonda Cook or Dana Tureski.
