off season events
Our home in Meredith is still our second home, although we are getting closer to becoming full time. We never would have made the investment in a second home twenty years ago for a one season region. Some of the plusses of the off season to us are:
Fewer people/traffic
Great hiking
Downhill skiing. Meredith is within 1/1/2 hours of many of New England's finest resorts, and 2 hours from even more.
Cross Country skiing. Either at one of the several groomed sites, or right out on the frozen lake
Hundreds of snowmobile miles
Ice skating
Ice fishing
Meredith hosts an annual ice fishing derby that is a very well attended event
Meredith hosts its third annual pond hockey tournament in 2012 which has become a huge event
Zip line courses
Winter indoor golf at Funspot
Splitting wood
Christmas in the lakes is beautiful, Wolfboro has a winter carnival event
Ice races on Berry Pond
And I am sure that there are others that I just can't think about in the middle of July. If you are bored in the winter, it's your own fault.
