Haverhill boasts
many recreational opportunities,
year 'round. Celebrate spring while you improve your swing on
one of Haverhill's four 18-hole golf courses. |
Dive into summer's cool waters or learn to sail at Lake
Saltonstall. Hike trails along the Merrimack River on a crisp
fall day as Nature dazzles you with red, orange, and yellow leaves
against a clear blue New England sky. Schuss down the slopes
on skis or snowboard under the bright winter sun at a local ski
area.
Eight lakes and ponds attract fishermen during the warm months
and become playgrounds for figure skaters and hockey players
in the winter. Joggers and horseback riders explore miles of |
|
beautiful trails at Winnekenni Basin and Recreational Area.
Haverhill's strong sense of community spirit is clearly heard
from the spectators at baseball, softball, soccer and football
games played on the many well-manicured fields across the city.
And community groups show their pride in Haverhill's many
parks by "adopting" areas through the Brightside beautification
program.
Move indoors and you'll see people from throughout Greater
Haverhill working out at Cedardale Health & Fitness, the
largest indoor-outdoor athletic club in New England, perfecting
"figure eights" at the roller and ice skating rinks
or enjoying a championship game of bowling. |
