The Central New England Nordic Council (CNENC) has been organized to purchase and operate the Windblown cross-country ski center, in New Ipswich, NH, as a non-profit Nordic ski center. As detailed in the CNENC Master Plan, the facility proposed for the Windblown site would provide a home for educational, coaching, and outreach programs aimed at developing and growing the entire pyramid of cross country skiing – from its recreational and youth base through training and support for national and international competitors – all within an easy drive of greater Boston. **
