Learning about and loving dog sleds

Event brought joy to children
Metis Society Woodlawn Regional Park
Dogsled rides were recently offered at Woodlawn Regional Park.

ESTEVAN - The Métis Nation of Saskatchewan Estevan Local 25 was able to get in one last winter event on March 20 at Woodlawn Regional Park.

Garrick Schmidt, owner of the Eagle Ridge Dog Sled Team, and Dexter Mondor brought a dog sled team to the park. Demonstrations were held at one of the park’s campgrounds, since they couldn’t access the Souris River, as was originally planned, due to melting ice.

They brought 18-20 dogs and some sleds to Estevan for the event.

People enjoyed sled rides and demonstrations of the sport.

Linda Sopp with the Estevan chapter said she has never seen so many children with such large grins.

Hot chocolate and Timbits were served.
