CONWAY — Following a two-year hiatus, the Hannes Schneider Meister Cup returns to Cranmore Mountain Resort in North Conway, March 4-6.
Jeff Leich, executive director of the New England Ski Museum, said the Meister Cup is more than a race — it is a spectator event with a reception and torchlight parade, which is set for Friday, March 4.
