Jo (Jonette) Cauvin
It is with a heavy heart that CopperDog announces the passing of a longtime family member, Jo Cauvin.
Jo was a founding incorporator of CopperDog, a board member and officer, and the skills she brought from her corporate background were invaluable in guiding the organization through its infancy and into the present day.
Jo personally took on the obtaining of land permits, waivers, liability forms, and insurance. All the “Invisible” tasks with no glory, but without them CopperDog would not exist. There would be no race. A week before her death, Jo was still working on these tasks, tying up loose ends for the 10th annual 2019 race.
Jo was also a vital resident of her beloved Eagle Harbor and handled the organization of that checkpoint, personally raising the sponsorship money, every year, for that stop on the race.
We will miss her insight, business acumen, loyalty and tireless energy. But most of all we are grateful she chose to devote her considerable talents to CopperDog.
We send our love and condolences to her family and friends. Thank you for sharing her with us.
