Dog Sled Racing

Dog Sleds from the 2007 race.

The lines are being drawn, the shouting and finger pointing has started as teams from Bollinger and Cape Girardeau Counties get ready for the 3rd annual Dog Sled Race this Saturday in Marble Hill. The race will start at 1pm.

Team Crager from Bollinger County has won the last two races but the Missouri Mentoring Group from Cape County has made it known that they are ready to take the trophy over the county line this year.

The race is just part of the events taking place at this years Christmas in the Foothills Festival in Marble Hill. CWI Waste Disposal out of Jackson is once again the events golden sponsor and would not doubt like to see the trophy cross the line.

Any group wanting to enter a team may still do so up till 12 noon. The sled and team requirements maybe viewed at www.christmasinthefoothills.org
