Who is Erin Harpe Duo?

Erin Harpe Country Blues Duo (or “CBD”) has been called “today’s country blues at its very best” by Living Blues Magazine, who crowned Erin “one of the finest fingerpicking acoustic blues singers in the land”! The award-winning duo features Erin on acoustic guitars, vocals, kazoo & foot percussion, and husband Jim Countryman on ukulele bass and backing vocals. Their latest album, MEET ME IN THE MIDDLE, was named “2021 Album of the Year” by the New England Music Awards! Erin & Jim have toured all over the US and Europe, opened for ZZ Top, Buddy Guy, James Cotton, Honeyboy Edwards and many others, and released four critically-acclaimed albums on the VizzTone label.

What is SCES' Winter Activities Program?

The Sunapee Central Elementary School Winter Activities Program has been a staple of our students’ experience for nearly fifty years! All students choose to participate in an activity that catches their interest. This year’s activities include skiing and snowboarding at Mt. Sunapee, winter sports, horsemanship, karate, theater, STEM, LSPA, and arts & crafts. The program’s successes would not be without the support of our generous community and partnerships with local businesses.

Monies raised by this event will go to offset the families costs of participating in this amazing program.

Who is Bob Skinner's Ski & Sport?

Bob Skinner’s Ski & Sport Shop is our generous sponsor for this event.

They have been serving Mt. Sunapee skiers for nearly half a century – almost as long as the ski area itself has existed! Owned and managed since 1985 by long time Newport local and former U.S. Ski Team racer Frank MacConnell, Bob Skinner’s Ski and Sport carries the region’s most extensive line of ski gear.

We, at Sunapee Heritage Alliance, are so thankful for the unwavering support of our community that we want to give back. To that end we are planning four Dinner & A Concert events this coming season - and each and every one will be a fund raiser for a local charity.
