Events

The 40th annual Seguin Sled Dog Mail Run is happening Saturday, February 22, 2025.

Every year since 1985, “sledvelopes” with letters prepared especially for this event, are gathered, loaded onto sleds and hauled by several dog teams to Rosseau, Ontario, 17 km through the bush on groomed trails. Teams gather and leave from the Village of Humphrey, Ontario, on Highway 141, to the cheers and good wishes from the many spectators and friends as the teams disappear in the bush on their way to Rosseau to be received by the Postmaster.

The “sledvelopes” are hand-stamped, a very old method of cancelling mail. These “sledvelopes” have become collector’s items all over the world.

Sledvelopes will be available for purchase in early December at the following locations:
– Seguin Public Libraries
– Rosseau Post Office
– Rosseau General Store
– Humphrey Arena
– Seguin Township Municipal Office

Each sledvelope is $3.50 each or $5.00 with a $1.50 donation to Aspen Valley Wildlife Sanctuary.
