| Ice Skating/Speed Skating James
A. Whelpley from Kings County invented the "Long Reach Speed Skate"
and introduced it on the Long Reach about 1870. After that skating became
a passion for young and old alike. Many practiced
skating on the wide stretches of the Kennebecasis. During the winter months travel by ice back and forth to the Pennisula was very common. Ice skates made the trip much faster and easier. |
