90th Anniversary of the First Snow Train: Cunningham Family Ski Exhibit

The Cunningham Family Ski Exhibit will be on display again for the 2024 Season. The display includes photos and artifacts on loan from the Cunninham Family including pins, helmet, uniform, and related ephemera from the early “Ride Up-Slide Down” era to skiing today. As part of the North Creek Depot Museum’s celebration of the 90th Anniversary of the First Snow Train to North Creek, NY, the Cunningham Family shared early ski memories at Tannery Pond Center. The presentation titled “Stories of America’s Oldest Ski Shop” was recorded and is available here: Cunningham Family Ski History
