To the Editor:
Last winter, my husband and I bought each other snowshoes and snow tires for Christmas and it was the first of December when I sent my annual letter to The Enterprise, inviting people to sled on Kirk’s Hill, just as my grandfather, James L. Kirk, had always done when he lived at 167 Maple Avenue.
This year, I delayed in sending the sledding announcement until after the start of the New Year, which seemed to be the perfect recipe for early snow. Belated as it might be, the invitation still stands as it has for decades, inviting children and children at heart, this year and every year, to sled down the humble Kirk Hill behind 167 Maple Avenue to keep the tradition alive.
