The Upper Valley

Posted Apr 5, 2007 @ 3:20 pm, Viewed by 526 Visitors, Read 527 Times.
The UpperConnecticut RiverValley area of New Hampshire and Vermont, just called the UpperValley by "us locals," strides the Connecticut River, with New Hampshire on the east and Vermont on the west. 

Lebanon, New Hampshire is the economic powerhouse of the area with its lively commercial area on Route 12 A and many research firms. Lebanon is also home to Dartmouth-HitchcockMedicalCenter, its largest employer and supplier of superlative health services not often found in rural areas. 

Blessed with lush natural beauty - mountains, rivers, lakes, fields, barns - and a plethora of recreational opportunities, the Upper Valley also enjoys cultural amenities that one usually only finds in urban areas. The influence of
Hanover’s DartmouthCollege pervades the UpperValley bringing concerts, educational opportunities, films, discussion groups, and a special "tone." The Upper Valley is also blessed with many theater and musical groups and Lebanon's wonderful performing center, the Lebanon Opera House where Opera North was in residence this past summer with productions of "Il Trovatore" and "Alfred Herring" and the North Country Community Theatre produced "Singin' In The Rain." This summer NCCT presents
“The Pajama Game” and Opera North will state “Falstaff” and “Turandot.”

There are still country general stores in the area including delightful ones in Strafford and Norwich Vermont.  People here cherish them, as they do the blend of old fashioned country ethics and ways with intellectual and cultural vitality.  There are artists, writers, and musicians finding renewal and meaning here in the
UpperValley as well as "ordinary folks" who just like it here.
