Sommer-Camp Kjorerskolen<br />

The Sommerhundekjorerskolen is<br />

a great concept that can only<br />

take place thanks to the enormous<br />

support of the NHF ( Norwegian federation)<br />

. Their goal is to motivate<br />

more young people into sled<strong>dog</strong><br />

<strong>sport</strong>s (because as you know, they<br />

are the future). This year the IFSS<br />

was invited to take part with 10<br />

young mushers from all over the<br />

world. This camp made it so much<br />

easier for kids from all over the<br />

world to connect with other young<br />

foreign mushers, make friends, and<br />

make it easier to talk to each other<br />

at championships or other important<br />

races in the future. I was amazed<br />

by the ability of the kids to all<br />

speak English and to interact with<br />

each other, they maybe were a little<br />

bit shy in the beginning, but after a<br />

few days they were all interacting<br />

and having fun!<br />

The accommodation where the kids<br />

and leaders stayed for the week<br />

was splendid, we could use three<br />

big blocks with some very nice and<br />

cosy ski apartments which contained<br />

a bathroom, living room, bedroom<br />

and a kitchen (all <strong>dog</strong>s were<br />

allowed in the room in their kennels).<br />
