ECX sled dog race canceled for 2021
The 2021 Eagle Cap Extreme sled dog race, originally scheduled for January, has been canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the ECX website.
“After considerable discussion with medical professionals, community leaders, and several key volunteers in the Eagle Cap Extreme family, we made the difficult decision to postpone our 2021 races,” the website states. “We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and look forward to resuming with the 2022 race.”
Dr. Randy Greenshields, president of the ECX board of directors and co-owner of the Double Arrow Veterinary Clinic, said the board decided to cancel next month’s event Monday, Nov. 23 because of concerns over keeping people socially distanced. He said organizers have been busy getting the word out to all the mushers and volunteers.
