Leicester Ski Area
Leicester, MA
Years Operational Unknown
Thanks to the New England Ski Museum, we now know of this ski area that operated in Leicester. A brochure turned up during NELSAP's scanning visit in February. There was some information to glean from that brochure.
Although
the brochure was undated, I am estimating that it is from the 1960's/early
1970's. In that year, the ski area offered night and day skiing on 3
slopes, each 1000 feet long. Difficulties of the trails ranged from
beginner to expert. A 100' X 80' skating rink provided ice time to
non-skiers.
Rates were quite cheap, with the maximum ticket being $3.00/day. |
Shown here is the lounge, which served plenty of food and drink to skiers and non-skiers alike. |
Laurie P. believes the ski area was at the Leicester Golf Course.
Does anybody else remember this ski area?
