Join the Warren Miller production crew as they travel from India to New Hampshire as they search for the ultimate 'freshie'.  This 62nd Warren Miller production stays true to form by blending breathtaking cinematography, the high alpine environment and exhilarating footage of extreme skiers and snowboarders exploring the wonders of chest deep powder. 

Explore the winter woods with seasoned snowshoers and outdoorsmen.  Discover Camp Denison Recreation Area's dynamic landscape under a quiet blanket of snow. We plan to snow shoe (or hike!) for roughly an hour along the trails.

B received hand-me-down ice skates that fit him just beautifully this year. I took them over to Palazola's Sporting Goods to have them sharpened and I was looking forward to getting him on the ice over at the O'Maley/The Dorothy Talbot Rink during their "Open Skate" sessions. Tomorrow, the Cape Ann Skating Club is having a Holiday Exhibition and it'll be a great opportunity to get him on skates and excited about learning to skate.

The schedule is as follows:

11:30 the doors will open and there'll be crafts, refreshments and picture opportunities with Santa.

12:30 the skating exhibition will begin. All skaters with full club membership, regardless of level, are encouraged to perform. Skaters usually skate a program to a holiday song, which they choose, that is choreographed by their private coach. Skaters can choose to do a solo, a duo, a trio, or a group number. 

2:00 - 3:00 skating will be open to the public with a skate lesson offered with a $2 donation.

3:00 a raffle of a signed Bruin's Hockey Stick.

See you there!
