RE/MAX Offices of Central Oregon Sponsor One of the World’s Leading Sled Dog Mushers

Sunriver , Ore. – RE/MAX Sunset Realty announces the sponsorship of Michael Salvisberg by RE/MAX Offices of Central Oregon in the AttaBoy 300 World Cup Sled Dog Race for Vision on January 3-11, 2004.

Ranked fifth in the world, and third in his region, which includes Alaska, Yukon Territory and British Columbia, Michael Salvisberg is a super star in the world of sled dog racing.

RE/MAX Offices of Central Oregon, including RE/MAX Sunset Realty, are sponsoring this incredible athlete, and bringing him back to Central Oregon once again to compete for the first place title--Michael finished fifth in last year's race. Michael will be driving over 3,500 miles from his home in Haines Junction, Yukon, to Central Oregon for the AttaBoy 300 World Cup Sled Dog Race starting at Mt. Bachelor on January 3. Michael will be joined by his handler Denis, and his nine year old son, Dylan, who is one of the top youth mushers. Dylan just qualified for the Artic Winter Games in Fort McMurray.

Michael, Dylan and Denis, along with a few of their fellow canines, will be visiting local elementary schools in Sunriver, Bend, Redmond and Sisters. AttaBoy 300 has a curriculum they use to educate elementary school children throughout the state.
