CONWAY — Chip Henry, who is widely regarded as the face of ski jumping in the North Country for the past two decades, is scheduled to be recognized on Wednesday when Kennett High finally holds its lone home meet.

The 20- and 30-meter jumps located just beyond the Saco District Ranger Station roughly a mile down the Kancamagus Highway will officially become the Chip Henry Ski Jump with a ceremony planned for 5:45 p.m.
