词条 | Satre Hill |
释义 |
Satre Hill is equipped with 20 metre and 30 metre jumps for training purposes and to introduce area young people to ski jumping. A historic wooden 65 metre jump that had become obsolete was demolished in 2010 and has been replaced with a modern steel structure suitable for future competitions. The venue draws its name from the Satre brothers, immigrants from Norway, who popularized the sport of ski jumping in the Salisbury area. He jumped from the top of a barn to introduce the sport of ski jumping to the town of Salisbury.[3] First used for ski jumping in the 1920s, the venue was previously a portion of a local farm, with the present landing area having served as a cow pasture. During the warmer months, Satre Hill is also the site for benefits for local not-for-profit organizations.
