About Winterdance by Tanya McCready-DeBruin:

Our distance race team started as a dream over 12 years ago when we first hooked up our 4 huskies. It has been a long road but the Iditarod has always been the ultimate destination for us and our dogs.

That road lead us to Haliburton, Ontario where we established our kennel and touring business back in 1999. Since than we have now grown to a touring kennel of 140 Purebred Siberian Huskies with some amazing staff and the privilege of having introduced thousands of people to this incredible sport.

2006 saw the start of our march to Iditarod, with Hank and an 8 dog team running the 50 mile race in Bancroft, Ontario. Since then they have completed the Marmora, Ontario 120 mile race and traveled to Maine for the Can-am 60 & 250, Michigan several times for the Seney 300 and UP 200, and Minnesota for the Beargrease Marathon a 400 mile challenge. This past winter saw Hank complete both required qualifying races to enter the Iditarod in Alaska!
