JACK HOLLAND  NO DOUBT WAS THE MOST ACCOMPLISHED SKIER  BORN IN PETERBOROUGH.  HE IS FEATURED ON THE COVER OF MY BOOK AND IN A SEPARATE CHAPTER.  THESE PHOTOS WERE OBTAINED FROM HIS FAMILY IN THE U.S.A. AND HIS NEICE NORMA (HOLLAND) NICHOLS HERE IN PETERBOROUGH. PRESENTLY THERE IS AN APPLICATION TO HAVE HIM INCLUDED IN THE PETERBOROUGH & DISTRICT SPORTS HALL OF FAME.
