Originally scheduled for this weekend, Jan. 26-27, the Tamworth Sled Dog Race has been postponed to the weekend of March 2-3. With the forecast of warm weather and rain just before the race, officials from the New England Sled Dog Club and the Tamworth Outing Club predict that there will be too much water on top of the ice at the start and finish area on Chocorua Lake, making it unsafe for competitive sled dog racing. Further details about the race will be forthcoming as the revised race date draws near.
The Tamworth Outing Club and the New England Sled Dog Club look forward to running this historic and scenic sled dog race in early March. For more information, go to tamworthoutingclub.org or the Tamworth Outing Club Facebook page.
