Mission Statement
The Serum 25 Run is a long distance dog mushing expedition that commemorates the courageous effort and success of the original Serum Runners, who were responsible for bringing the life saving diphtheria serum to Nome in 1925. Col Norman Vaughan, Serum 25 Run leader, along with dog mushers and supporting snow machiners, will travel the same route taken by the original Serum Runners from Nenana to Nome. In addition, Colonel Vaughan, dog mushers and snow machiners will speak to each village school along the way to remember the original feat accomplished by mostly Alaskan Native Mushers, and to inspire school age children to "Dream Big and Dare to Fail". Villagers will be reminded about the importance of getting inoculations as part of continuing present day health care.
