The Nazzaro Center, for the 13th consecutive winter, made its annual trip to the New England Sports Park in Amesbury for a night of tubing. Easily the most popular and well attended of the field trips that the center runs, the 56 tubers and 16 adults who chose to watch made the total of 82 a little short of the 100+ record set a few years back. Scheduled as it always is on the evening of the Presidents Day holiday, the Nazzaro Center had the slopes virtually to themselves, ensuring that each participant had a nearly unlimited amount of runs. Kicking off the February vacation week of daily activities at the center, the Amesbury tubing trip proved to once again be one of the highlights of the field trip season. These pictures capture the fun and good times that everyone enjoyed that night.
