With the return of winter, it's worth reflecting on our good fortune to live where there is such a strong tradition of Nordic sports and other winter recreational activity.
In Brattleboro, we have a history of getting out to enjoy the snow that goes back to the 1930s, when Fred Harris helped build the ski jump that now bears his name.
Harris was also one of the founders of the Brattleboro Outing Club, which continues to sponsor the Harris Hill Jump each year, as well as promoting cross-country skiing, tennis, canoeing, and rowing.
BOC has provided programs for young skiers for decades, including Olympic medalist Bill Koch, one of the many successful athletes emerging from its instructional and competitive leagues.
