Kylee Barton wishing her favorite musher a very happy birthday today! This will make his day when he reads his Facebook page. Thank you, Kylee! These little extras will warm his heart as he battles the cold wilderness in his race to Nome on the Iditarod Trail.🎂❤️🐾



This is Zairi! She called Alaska and left a musher-gram for Matthew Failor Bib #16. Today is Matt's birthday and he is spending it with his team as they race to Nome! The volunteer on the other end at the call center hand wrote the note for Matt. The note will be put on a bush plane and flown to a checkpoint where Matt will be stopping. Here, he will read his musher-gram. Many students have made calls this week and sent personal words of encouragement to their musher. One student even left a message for the musher in last place with words of praise and hope. The volunteers in the call center have been wonderfully patient with the students...some telling the students little personal stories of their musher. Happy birthday to Eddie Burke Jr. tomorrow. Thank you, Zairi. I know Matt will love your kind words ♥️ 🎂❤️
