Libby Here!  Hello Boys and Girls!

Do you know what a rookie is? Oh, I’ll tell you this one, but next time, I might wait and see if you can tell me the answer!  Time for you to study up about the Iditarod!  A rookie is someone who is new to something or is consider a ‘first timer’.

In Iditarod, a rookie is a musher who is running the race for the first time or who has never completed the race.  Sometimes a musher starts the race but doesn’t get to finish it.  The next time the musher signs up, that person is still a rookie.  A rookie is a rookie until finishing the race!

Are you a rookie at something?  Have fun talking about a time when you were a rookie!

Just spinning some ‘de-tails’
