The Vermont Ski and Snowboard Museum celebrates 100 years of ski jumping! Join us around the virtual Red Bench as we celebrate Harris Hill's Centennial!

This February, Harris Hill Ski Jump in Brattleboro, Vermont will celebrate 100 years of hosting national events, international tournaments, and US Olympic trials. Its history is a rich one and some of the biggest names in ski jumping have competed there.

Moderator, Peter Graves, a long-time Olympic broadcaster and coach will welcome a trio of guests that are sure to be informative and entertaining. Joining Graves will be noted Harris Hill historian and former jumper, Dana Sprague, who will speak about the Hill's remarkable history. Chief of Competition and former elite jumper, Todd Einig of Brattleboro will also have a seat on the bench. Einig was a former member of the Eastern Junior National Team and first jumped off Harris Hill when he was 14. He's currently the Director of the Junior Jumping program in Brattleboro and the Harris Hill Nordic Club. Also joining the discussion will be former Harris Hill jumper, Spencer Knickerbocker who had the honor of being the first jumper off the Hill after its rebuilding. Knickerbocker attended Lake Placid's Northwood School and later moved to Steamboat Springs, CO to train full-time as a member of the US Nordic Combined ski team where he competed internationally. He is currently the executive director of the Marlboro Nordic Ski Club.
