BRETTON WOODS — Cranmore Mountain Resort owner Brian Fairbank was among the Class of 2020 inductees to the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame in ceremonies held at the Omni Mount Washington Resort Saturday evening, March 5.
In a press release from the Ski Hall of Fame, based in Ishpeming, Mich., Fairbank was recognized as a pioneer in green energy and sustainability, installing a 1.5-megawatt wind turbine at Jiminy Peak. His innovative thinking later sparked the addition of a 2.3 MW solar facility, making Jiminy the first resort in America powered by 100 percent local renewable energy.
