We define mushing as any dog-powered sport. So whether you have one dog or multiple dogs, and whether they pull sleds, bicycles, wheeled rigs, or anything that rolls, or a skier, roller blader or skate boarders, or even weight pull or pull while you run (cani-cross), you are a musher.
The Vermont Mushers Association was established to:
1. Unite all those engaging in dog-powered sports in the State of Vermont for the purpose of maintaining and promoting statewide trail privileges,
2. Disseminate information,
3. Promote the safe and responsible use of trails,
4. Speak for and represent the Vermont Mushers Association to other organizations.
The largest contribution you can make to help our state-wide advocacy is to
join VTMA and to get
other mushers to join.
Please fill out a Membership Form and Questionnaire and send it to our Membership Secretary. We also have a Membership Flyer that you can print out and post at your local vet, feed stores, or other locations to help recruit mushers in your area.
